This beautifully designed three-story home, steeped in artistic history, is located just off King's Road. Entering the ground floor, you'll find yourself in a spacious hallway with a staircase. On one side is a newly fitted kitchen with a center island and breakfast area, while on the other is a cozy living room with built-in shelving. Beyond it is a bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and storage space.

The second floor features a large master bedroom with a walk-in closet, en-suite bathroom, and French doors overlooking Mallord Street. The west-facing orientation provides natural light in the afternoons. This floor also features a second bedroom with en-suite bathroom and a guest toilet.

The third floor is almost entirely occupied by a magnificent studio with double-height ceilings, an impressive fireplace, and large windows. There's also a paneled library with a bar and a well-lit workspace.

The house was built in 1911 for the watercolourist Cecil Arthur Hunt and designed by Ralph Knott, best known for his design of London County Hall. It is a typical example of a "studio house," with a spacious studio on the upper floor providing excellent lighting for creativity. The house was also the home of the renowned Hungarian pianist Louis Kentner, and recently the studio space has been used for concerts.

The property includes a garage and off-street parking, as well as a second-floor rooftop with a wooden terrace. Mallord Street is one of Chelsea's most charming neighborhoods, with its Edwardian-style houses. Numerous creative figures have lived in the neighborhood, including A.A. Milne, author of the Winnie-the-Pooh books.

Mallord Street is just steps from King's Road, renowned for its restaurants and shops. Sloane Square and South Kensington tube stations are also within walking distance.
