5 bed Flat For Sale £5,500,000
Wetherby Gardens, South Kensington, London, SW5

Five-bedroom flat with grand proportions on a sought-after street close to South Kensington

Entering the flat on the second floor, you find a large hallway with an ornate staircase. The hall opens onto the main reception room, a high-ceilinged space with a pair of sash windows facing towards the street. A curtained archway connects to the dining room, which in turn leads through to the kitchen, with views over the communal garden at the rear of the property. This floor also contains a bathroom, a bedroom with built-in storage, and a secluded study with inbuilt shelving units.

Upstairs, on the third floor, the principal bedroom offers its own dressing room and a large bathroom with further built-in cupboards. Three more bedrooms, two more bathrooms, a small utility room and a loft with additional storage space complete the property.

The flat was renovated by the celebrated designer Michael Spink. Its muted colour scheme and generous proportions give the rooms a sense of space and calm.

Residents enjoy access to the tranquil lawns of Wetherby Gardens. This award-winning garden is laid out with grass, trees and flowerbeds, and sheltered on three sides by buildings. It is one of the few private garden squares where dogs are allowed.
Wetherby Gardens is lined with townhouses in a mix of Victorian and Second Empire styles, built in the late nineteenth century. The street was once home to Viscount Allenby, the general who led the British armies against the Ottoman Empire in the First World War, a campaign made famous by Lawrence of Arabia. Today, the property is within easy reach of Gloucester Road underground station, as well as the outstanding museums, restaurants and schools of South Kensington.
