This beautiful three-bedroom apartment lies in a beautiful mansion block on the coveted Draycott Avenue in Chelsea. Set on the second floor, the turn-key apartment is accessed via a lift, the property features three generously sized double bedrooms, all situated away from the main entertaining areas for added privacy.
Fully refurbished, the interior design is by Taylor Howes; each bedroom has an en-suite bathroom clad in marble and finished with Samuel Heath ironmongery. The kitchen is a multifunctional family space, with a built-in banquette dining table and beautiful cabinetry finished in a wood centre. Two bright adjoining reception rooms open onto a balcony, offering south-westerly views down Draycott Avenue. Currently laid out as a dining room and sitting room, the space is perfect for hosting. There is air conditioning in the master bedroom as well as the main reception, and the building has a porter.
Just a short walk away lies the iconic Kings Road, once the epicentre of 1960s Swinging London. Steeped in history, this famous street was originally owned by King Charles II for his travels between London and Hampton Court. Today, it stands as a world-renowned shopping destination. The Saatchi Gallery is within easy reach, set against the backdrop of Duke of York Square. This vibrant space also hosts a Saturday fine food market, offering a variety of artisanal and local produce between 10 am and 4 pm.
Nearby restaurants include La Famiglia, Bluebird, Scalini, and The Five Fields. For a dose of greenery, Chelsea Embankment Gardens, Chelsea Physic Garden, and the Royal Hospital, home to the Chelsea Flower Show, are all within walking distance. Harrods, Walton Street, and Brompton Road are also close by, offering world-class boutiques and dining options.
The area is home to some of the UK’s finest schools, including Hill House on Hans Place, Sussex House on Cadogan Square, and Francis Holland on Graham Terrace. Transport links are excellent, with Sloane Square (District & Circle lines) and South Kensington (District, Circle & Piccadilly lines) underground stations nearby.
