set within the award-winning essoldo house, this beautifully designed two-bedroom apartment unfolds across the second floor of a boutique development on old church street. the building itself has a smart, intimate feel, and its enviable position places the king’s road’s restaurants, galleries and boutiques directly on the doorstep.
the apartment is entirely lateral, arranged around a double reception room that opens onto a generous south-facing terrace stretching the length of the property. every principal room connects to this outdoor space, creating a clever flow between inside and out. light streams through floor-to-ceiling glazing, illuminating interiors that have been carefully maintained and interior-designed.
at its heart is a porcelanosa open-plan kitchen, fitted with miele appliances and an instant boiling-water tap, which flows into the dining and living space, a setting made for entertaining.
the principal bedroom has an ensuite dressing room and shower suite, and also opens directly onto the terrace, while a second double bedroom is fitted with bespoke oak-panel wardrobes. a family bathroom and guest cloakroom complete the arrangement.
residents benefit from secure underground parking, european oak flooring with underfloor heating, a comfort-cooling system and carrara marble finishes throughout. rarely does a home combine such a considered specification with the lifestyle and atmosphere of old chelse a.
old church street is one of chelse a’s most characterful addresses, linking the thames to the king’s road. the area is steeped in history, the street takes its name from chelse a old church, parts of which date back to the thirteenth century, and has long been favoured by artists and writers. the saatchi gallery, cadogan hall and royal court theatre are all within easy reach.
leafy riverside walks lead towards battersea park, while the boutiques of sloane square and pavilion road are a short stroll away. excellent transport links connect to the rest of london, yet the atmosphere remains distinctly village-like, offering a rare sense of both retreat and connection in the heart of the city.
