Lateral Penthouse, South Kensington

An exceptional lateral penthouse occupying the entire top floor of a prestigious portered building in the heart of South Kensington. Accessed via private lift, the apartment offers an extraordinary level of space and light, with a double-height reception room and a wraparound roof terrace commanding panoramic views over the rooftops of one of London’s most distinguished neighbourhoods.

The interior has been designed by a leading London practice with no compromise on quality. The kitchen is fitted with Gaggenau appliances and bespoke cabinetry; the principal bathroom is clad in book-matched Calacatta marble. A fully integrated smart home system controls lighting, climate and security throughout. A bespoke wine room, capable of holding in excess of two thousand bottles, is an unusual and highly desirable feature.

Four bedrooms, each with fitted wardrobes, are served by three bathrooms of the highest specification. The property benefits from two parking spaces in the secure underground car park and 24-hour concierge. South Kensington’s museums, the restaurants of Brompton Road and the open spaces of Hyde Park are all within immediate reach.
