Description
Albert Hall Mansions comprises a purpose built block of mansion flats designed by the distinguished British architect Norman Shaw in 1879. They are designed in the Queen Anne Style, constructed of red brick under a slate covered and pitched roof. The buildings are listed Grade II by Historic England. There are wrought iron balconies to the upper floors, with traditional sash and casement windows, having small panes and glazing bars and segmental headed windows in triplets. The distinctive roof line, visible from afar, has tall chimneys with projecting gables, for which Norman Shaw attracted the misnomer of “the Queen Anne Style”.
This extremely spacious five bedroom duplex apartment 3,995 sq ft (371 sq m) is situated on the fourth and fifth floors, which enjoys magnificent views over Kensington Gardens and the Prince Albert Memorial. Originally arranged as three apartments, the property has been refurbished to provide generous family accommodation ideally located close to all the local amenities.
Location
Albert Hall Mansions is situated on Kensington Gore, adjacent to the historic Royal Albert Hall, within easy reach of the various amenities of Knightsbridge, South Kensington and Kensington. It is located within close proximity of Harrods, Harvey Nichols, an array of 5* hotels, restaurants and designer boutiques.
Immediately opposite, located off Kensington Gore, access is provided to the beautifully maintained Kensington Gardens, once the private gardens of Kensington Palace. The gardens cover an area of 107 hectares (265 acres). Located to the east, is the Grade I listed Hyde Park, an area of 142 hectares (350 acres) the largest of the 4 Royal Parks, situated just 200 metres away from the building. During daylight, the 2 parks merge seamlessly into each other, but Kensington Gardens closes at dusk, and Hyde Park remains open throughout the year from 0500 to 1200 midnight.
The nearest London underground stations are located at Gloucester Road (0.7 miles) and South Kensington (0.6 miles) (Piccadilly, District & Circle lines).
Square Footage: 3,995 sq ft
Leasehold with approximately 986 years remaining.
