3 bed flat for sale

Cromwell Place, London SW7

In one of South Kensington’s most distinguished enclaves, this carefully-renovated three-bedroom duplex pairs handsome period architecture with refined contemporary design. Occupying the ground and lower-ground floors of a distinguished townhouse, generous ceiling heights, expansive living spaces and reams of natural light create a sophisticated backdrop for modern city living.

Beyond the charming stucco façade, an impressive open-plan reception and dining room unfolds. Heritage detailing abounds, from intricate cornicing to large sash windows and parquet flooring, while a marble fireplace forms a striking focal point. Contemporary chandeliers illuminate each zone, bringing additional warmth to this sprawling entertaining space.

To the rear, the kitchen showcases a clean, minimalist aesthetic, with glossy white cabinetry, integrated appliances and sleek timber flooring. A glazed door opens onto a private terrace, where painted brickwork and considered planting make for a serene al fresco suntrap.

Downstairs in the principal bedroom suite, soft carpeting and muted tones enhance the sense of tranquillity, while a skylight draws daylight into the space. A dedicated dressing room with fitted storage is complemented by a second walk-in wardrobe. The adjoining bathroom is wholly restorative, featuring a dual vanity, freestanding bathtub and glass-enclosed shower.

Two further bedrooms continue the home's balance of classic and contemporary styling. One is finished with pale blue walls, parquet flooring and a marble fireplace, with full-height wardrobes providing ample storage. The second offers a serene palette of whitewashed walls and benefits from a modern en suite bathroom illuminated from above. Completing the home is a secluded internal patio and guest bathroom.

Characterised by residential streets and period architecture, South Kensington is a peaceful community with a covetable central London postcode. Some of London’s most revered museums along Exhibition Road are within walking distance, as well as the Royal Albert Hall, Saatchi and Serpentine Galleries, putting Cromwell Place at the centre of the cultural action. Coveted local restaurants such as Macellaio rc, Cambio De Tercio, Yashin Ocean House and Margaux are set for nights of fine dining, while Brompton Cemetery is poised for meditative strolls – one of the capital’s seven historic burial grounds. It’s not far to reach the retail offerings along Chelsea’s Kings Road too, followed by an evening of live music at The Troubadour.
