For those who want London life without the complications and restrictions of a historical property (or the compact nature of apartments), this contemporary house in Kensington could provide the comfortable, unique and well-located option to satisfy.

The house was designed and built for the outgoing owner

This unique property was designed and built in 2008 for the seller and provides over 11,000 sq ft of home, inclusive of the garden, garage and internal spaces. The south-facing garden is wide and landscaped for optimal owner enjoyment, complete with planted plots of seating terraces.

The neat, landscaped garden is south facing and provides terraces for outdoor seating

The main house is as contemporary and stylish within as the exterior suggests. Spread across multiple floors (there is a lift for those who tire of the grand staircase), the house has multiple, comfortable living spaces to allow for lounging, dining, cooking and entertaining in style.

Large reception rooms maximise the light and open onto the grounds

The interiors, with their generous use of glass and simplicity of design, feel almost museum-like and provide the peaceful antidote to a working life in the city.

Simplicity and elegance are the running themes in this stylish property

There are seven bedrooms and five bathrooms spread throughout the house to ensure all residents and guests have the comfort and privacy they need. All of these are beautifully finished and designed for elegance and ease, with full-height windows bathing all in light.

Seven bedrooms provide ample, elegant space for guests

To complete the package of thoughtful, well-designed living space, the house has a home gym and a swimming pool to satisfy the active – and a cinema room for satisfying the less-active.

All rooms, areas and spaces provide exactly what a busy professional needs: peace, convenience and a splendid place to enjoy both within. It’s an oasis in the rush and bustle of London.

Serenity prevails, even this close to the City

And you are closer to the heart of it that your garden would suggest! The house is advantageously located on Pitt Street, just north of Kensington High Street which is a ew minutes walk away and provides a range of shopping options (including Waitrose, Marks & Spencer and Whole Foods) and a station for the London Underground. The whole area has long been heralded as excellent for families thanks to lots of open spaces and easy access to excellent schools (including Fox’s and St Mary Abbot’s Primary schools, Holland Park Academy, Pembridge Hall, Thomas’s and Wetherby Prep schools).
