About
This exceptional 2,600 square foot, three-bedroom duplex apartment occupies a prime position within a prestigious boutique development in the heart of Kensington, offering sweeping views of the lush Hyde Park trees.
Boasting a private garden and two expansive terraces, the property provides an impressive total of approximately 1,191 square feet of outdoor space.
Vicarage Gate House, a collection of just 13 exclusive apartments designed by renowned London architect Eric Parry, stands as an epitome of refined living, with this particular apartment benefiting from its own private entrance.
The development includes a fully-equipped gym, 24-hour security and concierge services, valet parking, and direct access to a large allocated underground parking space measuring 19.8 ft by 9.10 ft.
The beautifully landscaped front garden leads to the gated private entrance, opening onto a grand and welcoming hallway.
Meticulously designed for both sophisticated entertaining and modern-day living, the apartment seamlessly integrates a manicured south-facing garden, enhancing the expansive living area.
The bright, versatile space flows effortlessly into the dining area and bespoke eat-in kitchen, which was hand-built by the renowned British company Smallbone of Devizes.
The kitchen is fully equipped with integrated appliances from Wolf and Gaggenau.
The property has undergone extensive upgrades, including a stunning marble fireplace by Jamb and Co, a guest bathroom by Waterworks, and a striking Macassar and stone drinks cabinet by Smallbone in the dining area.
The principal bedroom suite is a sanctuary of luxury, featuring bespoke built-in wardrobes, a spacious en suite bathroom with a bath and rainfall shower, all finished with exquisite Italian marble, and direct access to a serene patio courtyard.
Two further beautifully appointed bedroom suites provide ample accommodation, each benefitting from impressive three-meter ceiling heights.
All principal rooms are en suite, with separate dressing areas designed by Molteni, and feature underfloor heating, air conditioning, and an abundance of natural light.
Each of the three bedrooms enjoys direct access to beautifully landscaped terraces. Completing the bedroom floor is a separate laundry room by Smallbone, featuring a Miele washer and dryer.
Vicarage Gate House is discreetly located at the southern end of Palace Gardens Terrace, moments from Kensington Palace Gardens, and is perfectly positioned between the prestigious areas of Kensington and Notting Hill.
