An elegant two bedroom, two bathroom apartment, situated on the second floor of a handsome red brick Victorian building on a prime garden square in SW5.

Entering the apartment on the second floor, there is an inviting hallway with integrated storage and a separate shower room with a sleek finish. The hallway leads through to an exceptional reception room, which is characterised by a striking ceiling height of approximately 3.45 metres and a period fireplace. The space further benefits from floor-to-ceiling French doors that open out to a balcony with pretty views of the garden square below. Off the reception room is a well-appointed kitchen, complete with a breakfast bar, integrated appliances, a modern hob, and ample cabinetry and worktop space.

A spacious, south-facing principal double bedroom is discreetly positioned at the rear of the property, offering extensive wardrobe storage and an en suite bathroom with a freestanding bath and a separate shower. An additional bedroom is situated at the front of the property, featuring integrated storage and serene green views.

The property has a well-balanced layout and has excellent light and an abundance of storage throughout.


Barkston Gardens is an attractive garden square situated North of the Old Brompton Road and East of Earl's Court Road. The property benefits from the many shops and restaurants this area offers and is nearby Gloucester Road and Earls Court stations. Motorists will find straightforward access to the A4 for a fast route into central London and the M4, M25 and the West.

The area is well served by a regular bus service, and the property is conveniently situated near the Earl's Court underground station (District, and Piccadilly lines) and Gloucester Road underground station (Circle, District, and Piccadilly lines), enabling excellent transport connections to explore the city with ease.

Several well-renowned schools are also conveniently located nearby, such as Wetherby School Kensington, Falkner House and Bousfield Primary School.

Nearby famous landmarks, museums and cultural institutions include the Victoria & Albert Museum, The Natural History Museum, The Royal Albert Hall, Kensington Palace, Hyde Park, Harrods and the Saatchi Gallery.

Property information from this agent

Places of interest

    One of the capital's heavyweight cultural and education hubs, affluent South Kensington, affectionately known as 'South Ken', is also unsurprisingly one of the central London's most desirable residential areas bordering the glossy postcodes of Knightsbridge, Kensington, Fulham and the green fringes of Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens. Perhaps best known for its world-class museums clustered within a small square footage of SW7, the area brags the Victoria and Albert Museum (the V&A), the Natural History Museum and the Science Museum. Within striking distance are leading universities including Imperial and LSE. As such, attraction-heavy South Kensington gets busy. But away from the visitors, in green pockets of this historic district, sit some of the capital’s finest properties tucked away on quiet, leafy streets, curling around private garden squares and lining roads behind London’s iconic museums and top education facilities. From our offices on Old Brompton Road, each year we help buyers from across the globe make SW7 their home, securing some of the area’s best properties – from large, European-style apartments in red brick mansion blocks to grand family homes and freshly launched new developments.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on December 22, 2021

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
