Property description
A beautifully presented two bedroom house discreetly situated on the western side of one of South Kensington's prettiest streets. This house offers flexible living and a wonderful west facing terrace.
The current owners completely renovated the house for themselves four years ago and as such the quality of the finish, the attention to detail and the materials used have the sleekness, good taste and style
only found when a property is refurbished by and for the people who are going to live in it.
The house is arranged over three floors and provides an abundance of entertaining space. On the ground floor is a large kitchen/dining/reception room with plenty of space for a substantial dining table as well as a snug alcove ideal for a home office. Above this is a sumptuous bedroom suite encompassing the entire first floor with a capacious amount of handmade fitted wardrobes. The second floor is a further, more intimate reception room with a wall of fully retractable glass doors leading onto a delightful west facing roof terrace with wonderful view west over the rooftops and trees of Hereford Square. In all this home combines a perfect blend of contemporary style inside the period elegance of a Victorian house.
Clareville Street runs north off the Old Brompton Road, just to the east of Clareville Grove. As such it is almost equidistant between Gloucester Road and South Kensington underground stations along with the vast array of shops, bars and restaurants that both areas provide.
