This three-bedroom apartment behind the red-brick facade on Cheyne Gardens has all the characteristics of the area's late Victorian architecture. Tall sash windows, intricate moldings, and natural elegance. Located on the first and lower levels, the apartment with its own entrance and private garden is more like a house.

The first level is abundant with light. At the forefront is the west-facing living room with an impressive bay window and almost panoramic glass, flooding the room with afternoon sun. Period details, high ceilings, a stone fireplace, and decorative moldings add character and coziness. Behind it, in an easy open plan, is the dining room with green views of the garden. The modern kitchen opens onto a terrace, perfect for summer lunches or evening drinks. A discreet ladies' study completes this level.

The lower level houses three quiet double bedrooms. Each is equipped with built-in furniture; two of them have en-suite bathrooms. Two bedrooms have direct access to the garden. The utility room allows for convenient household work.

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

Cheyne Gardens is one of Chelsea's most famous addresses. The deep red-brick houses often with white stucco symbolize the area's peak in the early 20th century. The 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 walks and greenery. Excellent transport links at Sloane Square and South Kensington make it easy to reach other areas of London.
