Un Plafond Orné Et Un Accès Au Jardin Sur Les Jardins De Harrington

Intricate plasterwork stretches across the double reception room of this five-bedroom duplex on Harrington Gardens. Arranged over the raised ground and lower ground floors of a Grade II-listed redbrick building, the apartment spans approximately 2,859 sq. ft., with generous entertaining rooms and direct access to a communal garden.

The reception room is the architectural centrepiece, measuring almost 30 ft. by 25 ft. Two broad bay windows bring light into the seating and dining areas, while an elaborate ceiling, decorative cornicing and a fireplace give the room its distinctive character. Fitted bookshelves fill one wall, and parquet flooring runs beneath the dining area.

Across the entrance hall, the kitchen has pale cabinetry, dark worktops and a central island with breakfast seating. Tall windows overlook the greenery outside, with room beside them for a dining table. A terrace at the end of the hall leads down to the communal garden, where mature trees and lawns provide a leafy backdrop to the surrounding redbrick buildings.

A fifth bedroom, currently used as an additional sitting room, shares the raised ground floor with a guest WC. Its position away from the other bedrooms also makes it well suited to use as a study.

Four bedrooms occupy the lower ground floor, each with an ensuite bathroom or shower room. The principal bedroom has fitted storage, a broad bay window and an ensuite shower room with twin basins. Further cupboards line the hallway, providing useful storage throughout this level.

Harrington Gardens is close to the restaurants, cafés and shops of Gloucester Road and South Kensington, with Underground connections available from both stations. The neighbourhood’s museums are also within easy reach, including the Victoria and Albert Museum, the Natural History Museum and the Science Museum
