Indoor Spaces
The property is furnished throughout with high-quality materials and tasteful furniture, yet it retains the comfort and informality of a family home.
The ground floor contains an entrance hall, study and a generous reception room, with access to the enclosed front garden. In addition, this floor contains a dining room and next-door kitchen with an island seating area. Both these rooms feature high French windows, which open onto the south-facing rear garden, meaning they are filled with light.
The Bedrooms
Upstairs, the first floor offers a grand principal bedroom occupying the entire width of the house, with a pair of ensuite bathrooms. In addition, a second study at the rear of the house allows access to a terrace with garden views. Upstairs again, on the second floor, are four more bedrooms and two bathrooms, while a sixth bedroom completes the third floor.
Entertainment Spaces
Downstairs, the lower ground floor includes a games room, a home cinema and a gym, as well as a wine cellar and bedroom with ensuite bathroom. In addition, there is a large laundry room, considerable storage space and separate access to the street.
Outdoor Spaces
The house benefits from a front garden sheltered by high yew hedges, with space enough for an outdoor dining table. In addition, there is a paved rear-garden and a large first-floor terrace, while the south-west entrance to Holland Park is just a few metres away.
History
This property is located at the quiet end of Ilchester Place, and is one of the few houses on the street with a side entrance, allowing for added privacy.
Read more about the design of this exceptional property here.
The beautiful red-brick houses on Ilchester Place were built during the interwar years and designed in the neo-Georgian style. Their wide proportions allow for an unusual level of lateral space, as well as a low building frontage for the entire length of the street.
The Neighbourhood
Ilchester Place is set within the Holland Park Conservation Area and preserves a sense of discretion and calm. However, the local neighbourhood is also well-served by the restaurants, schools and transport links around Kensington High Street.
