Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Private roof terrace in the heart of West London? Yes, please. Whether you're enjoying a coffee before sightseeing or watching the sunset across the rooftops, you'll be sure to make the most of this apartment's gem of an outdoor space. Inside, while slightly dated, has bundles of Chelsea charm, plus a contemporary kitchen if you fancy a homecooked meal. It's worth noting that a sliding door divides the first two bedrooms, while the third is on the lower level. Location-wise, however, you couldn't ask for better. Hyde Park, Earl's Court station, and South Kensington's museums are all within walking distance.

Home truths
Although there's a lift in the building, it only goes to the home's entrance on the third floor. The other two floors are accessed by stairs inside the apartment.
The two king-size bedrooms share the same door, with a sliding wall dividing them. One has an en-suite bathroom. The third bedroom is on the lower level of the apartment.
Some of the dated elements may not suit everyone's tastes.
The fireplace is purely decorative.
Parking isn't provided, but a car isn't needed here. Earl's Court Underground station is a short walk away, or you can easily explore on foot.

World-class Hyde Park is just a stone’s throw away and there are plenty of great bars and cafes on the delightful pedestrianised end of Exhibition Road, packed full...
