House For Sale £5,000,000
Launceston Place, Kensington, London, W8

Grade II listed four bedroom house with exceptional potential for renovation on a sought-after Kensington street.

Entering the house on the ground floor, the front hall opens onto a large reception room with a bow window bringing in added light. Double doors lead through to a passageway, and on into an exceptionally generous studio space. South-facing windows ensure this room is well lit throughout the day, while double French doors open onto the patio.

The lower ground floor contains an open-plan kitchen that communicates with the dining room. In addition, this floor contains a bathroom and an underground storage vault.

The first floor includes a pair of well-proportioned bedrooms. There is an additional bathroom that serves the two additional bedrooms on the second floor. Because there is no property directly opposite, these upstairs rooms overlook the green spaces of neighbouring gardens.

The house has been occupied by the same family for many years. Its interiors offer a rare opportunity to be reimagined for modern family living.

The property includes a central patio with separate street access. In addition, the front garden giving added privacy from the road.
Launceston Place is a beautiful street lined with semi-detached villas built in the 1830s. These are low properties, set back from the road, bringing added light into the houses. Several are decorated with Arts and Crafts additions, including bow windows with hooded metal awnings, adding to the picturesque setting.

The northern end of Launceston Place is close to the restaurants and independent shops of Victoria Grove. Gloucester Road underground station is within walking distance, while the open spaces of Kensington Gardens are also close.
