An exquisitely refurbished penthouse apartment (with lift and air conditioning) positioned on the top floor of a well-run purpose-built block, overlooking Bramham Gardens; one of the most sought-after and dog friendly communal gardens in South Kensington.
FULL DESCRIPTION
In 1987, a unique scheme of works was carried out, doubling the size of the apartment to create 2,163 sq ft of lateral living space with additional attic space. More recently in 2012, the flat was meticulously refurbished by the current owners under the expert supervision of Italian architects “Studio Stefano Berard & Nicola Girardi”. Every detail has been considered in this exquisite refurbishment, down to door handles and intelligent lighting design.
The apartment is entered on the 5th floor where a reception hall provides a wonderful sense of arrival. A mosaic on the floor instantly gives an insight into the attention to detail that has been incorporated into the design of this unique flat. The reception room is an outstanding room with a ceiling height of 3m and generous reception space in which to relax or entertain. This elegant room benefits from double doors opening out onto a balcony on one side, and to the other, views over and a door leading out onto a private terrace. There is excellent concealed storage as well as a gas fireplace which creates a wonderful focal point to the room.
Adjacent is a fully fitted bespoke kitchen, with a lovely outlook and an abundance of natural light. The kitchen is a bespoke Italian-made design with built-in appliances, 2 fridge/freezers and there is a service door allowing for the ease of taking bins out, collected daily by the porter. Next to the kitchen is a dining room which also benefits from excellent natural light and is easily accessible from the kitchen and drawing room. The table comfortably seats 8 and is surrounded on one side by storage and shelving.
