We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
A bright and well proportioned four bedroom, three bathroom lateral apartment situated on the first floor of this highly regarded and desirable mansion block (with lift) in the heart of Kensington.
First time to the market in almost 20 years, this rarely available and delightful first floor apartment (accessed by lift or stairs) is in good condition throughout and consists of a spacious entrance hall, a large double width reception room with balcony, four double bedrooms, three bathrooms and a good sized modern kitchen with balcony and external storage cupboard.
Situated in arguably the best position within the building, the property further benefits from an abundance of natural light, ample built in storage, high ceilings, excellent entertaining space and allocated lockable storage areas and communal bicycle store on the ground floor.
There are also lovely views over the neighbouring gardens and trees.
Abingdon Gardens is one of Kensington's more exclusive mansion buildings, consisting of only 12 apartments, and renowned for its elegant wood panelled entrance hall, with charming leaded windows and fireplace.
It is conveniently located for access to a wide variety of excellent shops, supermarkets (Waitrose, Whole Foods), cafés and restaurants found on Kensington High Street and more locally in Stratford Road.
The green spaces of Kensington Gardens and Holland Park are within walking distance as is the closest underground station of High Street Kensington (District & Circle lines).
In summary, this rarely available first floor lateral apartment would make a wonderful home for any discerning purchaser. A real gem of a property that must be seen to be appreciated!
