Property description & features

  • Tenure: Share of freehold (968 years remaining)
Grade II listed flat with a lateral south-facing layout and a palatial reception room overlooking the Thames

Stepping into the property on the first floor, the entrance hall opens onto a grand drawing room. This is a spectacular space, its double-height ceilings decorated with elaborate moulding, while its exceptionally tall windows looking out on Albert Bridge and the gardens of historic Cheyne Walk.

Next door is an equally impressive dining room, set in a large bay window with views over the Thames. This view includes the greenery of Battersea Park – one of the few sections of the river in London free from building development. This room also contains its own wine cellar, while the southern aspect ensures it is filled with light for much of the day. Finally, this floor contains a guest cloakroom with beautiful patterned tiling.

Downstairs, a central corridor connects the main ground floor rooms, which likewise face south towards the river. These include a principal bedroom with a generous ensuite bathroom, as well as two more bedrooms and two more bathrooms, one of them ensuite. All of the bedrooms are well proportioned and contain built-in storage space.

On the lower ground floor is a large family sitting room, offer a comfortable contrast to the more formal spaces upstairs.

The property is reached via a grand entrance with a porter. It includes a first-floor balcony with views over the Thames and Albert Bridge. In addition, it benefits from several lower-ground floor storage vaults, as well as secure underground parking.
Cheyne House was built in 1875 by Norman Shaw, one of the leading architects of the late Victorian Era. Like several other substantial houses on Chelsea Embankment, it was built from red brick in the Queen Anne Revival style. It also stands at the eastern end of Cheyne Walk, one of London’s most historic addresses, which has been home to numerous writers, artists, and international figures, including George Eliot and Dante Gabriel Rossetti.

Today, the property is a short walk away from the King’s Road, with its celebrated range of restaurants and shops. It is also positioned close to the private Chelsea Physic Garden, while the open spaces of Battersea Park are within easy reach.
