5 bedroom terraced house to rent
Key information
Property description & features
Stepping into the house on the ground floor, the front door opens onto an impressive entrance hall. To one side is a dining room with high ceilings, a marble fireplace and a wide window. The dining room flows through to an informal front hallway, and beyond that a modern open-plan kitchen with a central island and marble worktops. Overhead skylights fill the breakfast area with brightness, while a pair of west-facing double French doors lead out onto the rear balcony.
The first floor features a spectacular double reception room with lofty ceilings and a pair of full-length French doors overlooking the garden square. The rear side of the room forms a library, with its own French door giving a double aspect. This floor also contains a garden-facing conservatory currently used as a home office.
The second floor is entirely occupied by the principal bedroom suite. This includes a bedroom, a walk-in wardrobe and a bathroom with a bath. The second floor features two more bedrooms, one of them ensuite, as well as a utility room. A large ensuite bedroom or games room, complete with storage space and kitchenette, occupies the third floor.
The lower ground floor centres on a generous family room with storage space and sliding French doors lead out into the garden. This floor also contains a gym, a bathroom, a bedroom and a storage vault. With separate street access, it could provide a self-contained flat.
The elegant interiors have preserved as many of the house’s original features as possible, giving a sense of grandeur, history and refinement to the rooms.
The property includes a paved west-facing garden with enough space for outdoor seating. Furthermore, there is a rear balcony on the ground floor with steps leading down to the garden, as well as front and rear balconies on the first floor. Finally, residents have keys to access the communal gardens opposite – one of the few garden squares with a children’s play area and permission for dogs. Thurloe Square is a highly sought-after garden square close to South Kensington underground station. It was developed in the 1820s with houses mostly designed by George Basevi, a celebrated Victorian architect of the Gothic and Neoclassical styles.
From here, the neighbourhood’s many outstanding museums and cultural institutions are close. In addition, the shops and restaurants of Chelsea and Knightsbridge are a short walk away, along with the open spaces of Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens.
