This three-bedroom apartment behind a red brick facade in Cheyne Gardens possesses all the hallmarks of the area's late Victorian architecture. Tall sash windows, intricate moldings, and a natural elegance are featured. Situated on the ground floor and lower level, the apartment, with its own entrance and private garden, feels more like a home.

The first level is awash with light. At the forefront is the west-facing living room, with an impressive bay window and nearly panoramic glass, flooding the room with afternoon sun. Period details, high ceilings, a stone fireplace, and decorative moldings add character and coziness. Beyond, in a light, open-plan layout, is the dining room, overlooking the verdant garden. The modern kitchen opens onto the terrace, perfect for summer dinners or evening drinks. A discreet powder room completes this level.

The lower level features three quiet double bedrooms. Each features built-in furniture, and two have en-suite bathrooms. Two bedrooms have direct access to the garden. A utility room provides convenient space for housework.

The garden is generous by Chelsea standards; mature trees and manicured borders create a secluded green setting around a lovely terrace for outdoor entertaining, while a timber shed provides useful storage.

Cheyne Gardens is one of Chelsea's most famous addresses. Its deep redbrick buildings, often with white stucco, symbolize the area's early 20th-century heyday. King's Road is just steps away, offering everything from long-established local restaurants to independent boutiques and stylish shops. Sloane Square is nearby, as are the embankments and Battersea Park for strolls and green spaces. Excellent transport links in Sloane Square and South Kensington make it easy to reach other parts of London.
