About
Description Set on one of Kensington’s most desirable private roads, this spacious duplex apartment at 40 Hyde Park Gate offers impressive proportions, period charm and an abundance of natural light.
Occupying the second and third floors of a handsome red-brick building, the apartment is arranged laterally with high ceilings, sash windows and parquet floors.
On the second floor, two large reception rooms with bay windows overlook mature gardens to the rear, while a separate dining room and kitchen provide generous living space.
This level also includes a guest bedroom with ensuite, a family bathroom, a staff suite and a powder room.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom spans the depth of the building, complete with a walk-through dressing area and ensuite bathroom.
Four further bedrooms, two with ensuites, are arranged around a sunny hallway, offering excellent flexibility for larger households or families with live-in staff.
Recently redecorated and newly carpeted, the property benefits from a day porter, lift access and off-street parking on a first-come, first-served basis.
Moments from Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens, Hyde Park Gate is perfectly located for the shops, cafés and museums of Kensington and Knightsbridge, with convenient transport links at High Street Kensington and Gloucester Road.
A substantial family home in one of London’s most distinguished addresses.
