Kensington Square, Kensington, London, W8

Built in circa 1701 and set back from the pavement behind its own small front garden, this freehold house is a wonderful example of Queen Anne (William and Mary) architecture, located on this stunning Kensington garden square, moments walking distance from the areas incredible schools (Thomas’s and St Mary Abbots to name a few), shops, restaurants and transport facilities, as well as Kensington Palace, and the beautiful green open spaces of Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park. The house is Grade 11 listed.

Built as a pair with number 12, they are the only two houses in the square to merit a description in the volumes of the Royal Commission on Historical Monuments. This property has been extensively modernised and beautifully re-designed by the current owners, whilst being sympathetic to the incredible rich history of the house.

With the use of bold colours and textures, the house now offers a home of immense style and warmth, whilst providing the highest quality of finishes and modern fittings. Original wood panelling, the wide and elegant staircase, elegantly proportioned rooms, are just a few of the many features of the house.

As well as having it’s own private south facing garden, a new owner can also apply for access to the beautifully maintained square garden.
