Subscribe to regular market updates. In one of the most desirable pockets in Kensington, loved for its heritage homes and Village proximity, this endearing Edwardian sees a design-led revamp deliver bright, spacious, and luxurious access to coveted Kensington. Quick to captivate with its white-picket fence and fretwork, spaces beyond strike a tasteful balance between period and modern for a lifestyle of sophisticated, low-maintenance luxe. An inviting hallway introduces first-class accommodation en route to a rear domain tailor-made for the entertainer, with sun streaming through a central light court and northern windows for a sense of space and airiness. With a stone-top kitchen boasting a butler’s pantry and high-end Miele/Bosch appliances, a substantial living/dining area is divine for nights by the fire, while a north-facing backyard sees a built-in barbecue, keg tap and fridge, rotisserie pit, and bench seating make warm-weather hospitality a breeze. An upper master with abundant storage and a chic ensuite, complimented by a smart, oversized bathroom, excellent robe space, and two downstairs bedrooms while other highlights include a skylit study, engineered oak floors, bespoke joinery, ceiling speakers, reverse-cycle heating/cooling, two soaker baths, a full-size laundry, ample street parking, and rear lane frontage.
