House For Sale £6,000,000
An attractive double fronted period house with a South Westerly facing garden and an adjoining mews style house with parking in a sought after road in Chelsea.
250 years ago when Kensington and Chelsea were villages surrounded by open countryside there was a farmhouse where this house in Drayton Gardens now stands and a painting depicting the house as it was in the Eighteenth Century is set behind glass above the studded oak front door. How much artistic licence has been used is unknown but one thing that is certain is that this property is a rare thing in Chelsea - a low built double fronted period house with a South Westerly facing garden. The house is unlisted and has many fine period features including linenfold oak panelling and fireplaces in many of the rooms, a wine cellar and a real sense that you are in a country house in London. The house has been in the owners family for over 60 years and whilst presented in good condition would benefit from some general updating but offers a wonderful opportunity to own a superb family home with accommodation over only three levels. What makes it even more unusual is that is being sold in conjunction with the adjoining property which is modern mews style house with gated off street parking. The two houses offer a fascinating mix of period style and more contemporary interior design and together provide the option for the new owners to have family or guests close at hand, to have an office, studio or consulting rooms right next door or to let out the smaller property (it has an established rental history). Combined the total floor area of the two houses is approximately 3557 square feet or 330 square metres.
Drayton Gardens is a highly regarded residential address within The Boltons Conservation Area and runs from the Fulham Road up to the Brompton Road so is well situated for access to the areas select range of shops, cafes and restaurants as well as the museums in South Kensington. Gloucester Road and South Kensington Underground stations are both located approximately half a mile away from the property.
