House For Sale £11,500,000
Wilton Place, Knightsbridge, SW1X

A unique townhouse on one of London’s most prestigious addresses, with rooms of rare size and splendour.

The door to the house opens onto a large entrance hall, which forms the first in a suite of rooms, running the entire length of the floor. The rooms progress through an inner hall and a sitting room, separated by series of retractable screens, allow light to be shared between them. They end with a dining room in a large conservatory at the rear of the property, with views over the garden.

The first floor is entirely occupied by a grand reception room, with an open staircase to realise the full potential of the space and allow for hosting on a generous scale. Meanwhile, the second floor includes a bedroom, a panelled study lined with shelves, and an office space contained within a generous bow window, looking down over the garden.

Upstairs again, the principal bedroom offers considerable storage space, as well as a long ensuite bathroom with dark wooden flooring. The bathroom has space enough for a separate dressing area, allowing for additional privacy. Upstairs once more, on the fourth floor, a pair of bedrooms share the final bathroom.

Downstairs, on the lower ground floor, there is a large kitchen with adjoining breakfast room. A skylight provides additional illumination for the eating area, while a doorway offers access to the garden. In addition, there is self-contained staff accommodation, with a utility room beyond and separate access to the street.

The house is decorated in a unique style, its modern minimalism combined with tasteful and distinct details. On the ground floor and first floor, stone fireplaces and floor tiles, as well muted walls, add to the contemporary aesthetic. However, in the family spaces on the upper levels, wooden panelling, bespoke joinery and a brighter palette give a sense of warmth and charm.

The property benefits from a paved garden of unusual length, which can be accessed from both the ground and lower ground floors. It is decorated in a sophisticated style, with raised flowerbeds and a water feature visible from the conservatory.

The house also offers a gated front garden and a first-floor balcony with views over the street. In addition, the fourth floor includes a roof terrace with views over the garden and the surrounding rooftops.

As one of only three properties on the street without an adjoining mews, the garden ends with a doorway providing access to Kinnerton Street.

The house is opposite the beautiful Victorian Church of St Paul’s and moments away from the exclusive Berkeley Hotel. In addition, the celebrated shops and restaurants of Knightsbridge are within easy reach, as well as the open spaces of Hyde Park. Finally, the adjacent Kinnerton Street has a charming collection of pubs and boutiques shops.
