Corte DI Campden House, Kensington, W8

Internal Area (approx.): 127 sqm / 1,362 sq ft
A beautifully proportioned three-bedroom garden apartment set within one of Kensington’s most distinguished mansion blocks, with direct access out to exquisite communal gardens.
Occupying the lower ground floor of this impressive red-brick building, the apartment extends to approximately 1,362 sq ft (126.5 sq m) and offers wonderfully balanced lateral accommodation. Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully enhanced by the current owner, the property combines classic mansion block proportions with modern comfort and elegant detailing. A generous entrance hall forms the spine of the home, creating a strong sense of arrival and lending a subtle country-house feel. Herringbone oak flooring and a warm, cohesive palette establish an inviting tone that continues throughout the apartment.
Reception & Entertaining Spaces
The principal reception room is particularly impressive in scale, measuring over 22 feet in length and featuring high ceilings, wooden flooring and a wide bay window that draws in excellent natural light. A decorative fireplace and bespoke built-in shelving enhance the room’s character, while its proportions offer flexibility — equally suited as a formal drawing room or, if desired, a substantial principal bedroom. Complementing this is a separate kitchen/dining room, positioned to the rear and enjoying direct access to the gardens. Designed in a timeless country style, the kitchen incorporates traditional wooden cabinetry, hardwood work surfaces and a gas hob with electric oven. Generous dining space and large windows create a relaxed yet refined environment for both everyday living and entertaining.
Bedrooms & Bathrooms
The apartment provides three well-proportioned double bedrooms, all thoughtfully arranged off the central hall. Each room enjoys good ceiling height and a peaceful outlook. One bedroom, previously configured as an en suite, now benefits from a walk-in wardrobe and adjacent WC, offering versatility depending on individual requirements. The spacious family bathroom is fitted with both a separate bath and shower, ensuring practicality for family life or guests.
Communal Gardens
A particular highlight of the property is its immediate access to the beautifully maintained communal gardens, approached via a private paved area directly from the kitchen/dining room. These expansive landscaped gardens are a rare privilege in Prime Central London, offering a tranquil green outlook and a genuine sense of seclusion from the surrounding city.
Location
Gloucester Walk is discreetly positioned off Kensington Church Street and is regarded as one of the area’s most desirable residential addresses. The property is within easy reach of the boutiques, restaurants and transport connections of Kensington High Street and Notting Hill Gate, as well as the open green spaces of Kensington Gardens.
