Five bedroom family home with the unusual benefit of an extra mansard floor on a highly desirable street.

Entering the house on the ground floor, the front hall opens onto a sitting room, with a bifolding door that connects through to the dining room. In addition, at the far end of the corridor, there is a guest loo and a door leading out into the garden.

A grand drawing room occupies the entire first floor, with high ceilings and tall windows. French doors lead out onto the front balcony and rear terrace, while the double aspect ensures the space is well lit, and the ornate decorative details add to the sense of grandeur.

Downstairs, on the lower ground floor, is a generous open-plan kitchen. This includes a pantry with additional storage space and a breakfast area with a sloping conservatory roof, while French doors lead out into the garden. In addition, this floor contains a family room, as well as access to a front patio and two underground vaults for storage.

The second floor is taken up by the principal bedroom suite. As well as the large bedroom with inbuilt shelving, there is also a corridor wardrobe leading through to the bathroom. In addition, the half-landing contains a separate laundry room.

The third floor contains a pair of bedrooms with a shared bathroom on the half-landing. Uniquely for this street, there is also a fourth floor with two more bedrooms, one of them ensuite.

The house is positioned on the preferred side of the street, while the extra mansard floor makes it a standout property. In addition, it is presented in excellent condition, with tasteful interiors and traditional floorboards.

The property includes a rear garden with planted flowerbeds and borders, a mix of paving and decking, and enough space for outdoor dining. In addition, there is a first-floor terrace with garden views, and a south-facing front balcony on the same level.

South Terrace is well-positioned street of terrace houses with stucco bases. South Kensington underground station is a short walk away, and so too the area’s world-class museums and cultural institutions. In addition, the restaurants and shops of Chelsea and Knightsbridge are both within walking distance. Finally, the area is well-served with independent schools.
