London, SW1X 0HY

A private lift delivers you straight into the apartment, setting the tone for the sense of exclusivity found throughout.

To the front, a generous reception room sits alongside a separate kitchen - spaces that work equally well for quiet evenings in or hosting guests, with the reception, dining and kitchen areas linked in a flow that still allows each to feel like its own room.

To the rear, the principal bedroom forms a suite in its own right, complete with en suite bathroom and direct access to a large private terrace - effectively an outdoor room, with rooftop views stretching across the city.

A second double bedroom, also en suite, offers equally comfortable accommodation, while a third room brings flexibility, whether needed as a guest bedroom or a home study.

A family bathroom/cloakroom and well-proportioned hallway complete the layout, with the circulation cleverly arranged so the principal suite retains its own sense of privacy from the rest of the apartment.

Combining generous room sizes, two en suite bedrooms and a rare terrace, this is a standout home in one of London's finest addresses.

Location Knightsbridge and Sloane Street's designer shopping is right on the doorstep, along with the boutiques of Beauchamp Place, plus Harvey Nichols and Harrods nearby.

The apartment also sits close to the celebrated One Hyde Park development, and Hyde Park's open green space is within easy reach for those wanting to escape the city bustle.

For culture, the V&A, Science Museum and Imperial College are all a short walk away.

The area is also home to a number of well-regarded hotels, among them the Mandarin Oriental, The Berkeley and Jumeirah Carlton Tower.

Getting around is straightforward too, with both Knightsbridge (Piccadilly line) and Sloane Square (District and Circle lines) underground stations within easy walking distance.

When it comes to dining, options close by include Scalini on Walton Street, Zafferano on Lowndes Street, San Lorenzo on Beauchamp Place and Amaya on Motcomb Street.

Families will also find a strong choice of schools nearby, including Francis Holland School, Garden House, Hill House, More House School, Sussex House School and The Knightsbridge School.
