Light Filled Lateral Living In Chelsea

Occupying the fourth floor of a handsome red-brick mansion block, this exceptionally bright lateral apartment has a generous west-facing reception room, four bedrooms and a long balcony. Extending to approximately 2,491 sq ft, it occupies a sought-after address moments from the King’s Road. High ceilings and raised door heights throughout add to the sense of space.

Four floor-to-ceiling French windows open onto the balcony, filling the reception room with afternoon and evening light. As the top floor in the block’s run of balconies, the apartment enjoys light uninterrupted by any balcony above. A centrally placed fireplace divides the space naturally, with openings on either side leading to a large adjoining dining room with a bay window.

Beyond lies a bright contemporary kitchen, where a full-height glazed window looks towards Cadogan Square. Extensive cabinetry provides ample storage, while a separate utility room is tucked discreetly off the hallway.

The principal bedroom has fitted wardrobes and an ensuite bathroom. Three further bedrooms are arranged along the hallway, one currently used as a study, together with a second ensuite and a family bathroom. A guest cloakroom is also positioned off the hallway. Pale walls and wooden floors run throughout.

Cadogan Court has a lift and a full-time day porter, and the apartment is offered with a share of the freehold. Draycott Avenue lies between Sloane Square and South Kensington, placing the boutiques and restaurants of the King’s Road, Duke of York Square and Brompton Road within easy walking distance.
