About this property
DescriptionThis thoughtfully appointed townhouse occupies a sought-after position on Phillimore Terrace, a handsome row of Victorian houses set back from Allen Street.
The raised ground-floor entrance hall flows through to a generous reception room, where high ceilings, twin fireplaces and a built-in bar create an elegant setting for entertaining. Double-aspect windows and French doors opening onto the rear terrace usher in abundant natural light.
The lower-ground floor features a well-proportioned open-plan kitchen, dining and living area. A central island with breakfast bar and stone worktops anchors the space, while bifold doors open onto the garden and an overhead skylight floods the space with light. A utility room, a guest WC and separate street access serve this level.
The basement provides a further reception room with high ceilings, additional cooking facilities, and informal sitting. It is flanked by a compact wellness annexe featuring a pool, sauna and steam room, forming a dedicated leisure wing.
The first floor hosts the principal bedroom suite, alongside a second bedroom and bathroom. Three further bedrooms are arranged across the second floor, two with en suites. A final en suite bedroom with considerable eaves storage occupies the third floor. A sixth en suite bedroom on the basement level offers a discreet and comfortable guest retreat.
To the front, a driveway provides parking for two cars. The rear terrace, garden and large lawn have ample space for outdoor seating, creating a wonderful setting for alfresco gatherings. The garden studio, complete with kitchenette and en suite bathroom, offers self-contained guest accommodation.
This townhouse holds a prime position in the heart of Kensington, one of London's most prestigious addresses. Kensington Gardens and the southern entrance of Holland Park are both a short stroll away. The high-end restaurants, shops, and cafes of High Street Kensington are within easy reach, as are the independent boutiques of Kensington Church Walk.
