Una Grande Residenza Vittoriana Situata Sulla Old Brompton Road

Set within Drayton Terrace, this distinguished Victorian residence was designed by architect J. Blore and built in 1846. It presents a classical stucco and brick façade with symmetrical proportions and refined detailing.

Behind this elegant exterior, the house unfolds across five storeys, offering generous accommodation, abundant natural light and a wealth of period features, including original fireplaces, sash windows and ornate plasterwork and cornicing.

The ground floor features an entrance hall and a dining room adjoining a well-appointed kitchen with traditional light cabinetry and a range of integrated appliances, including a gas hob and double oven. A rear lobby with storage and an adjacent cloakroom provides access to the gardens. The lower ground floor comprises a relaxed family room with parquet flooring, a bedroom with its own fireplace, a modern shower room and access to a small courtyard, offering a peaceful retreat.

The first floor features a spacious double reception room, ideal for entertaining, with twin fireplaces and ample light from sash windows at both ends, as well as a delightful sunroom – the ideal spot for a morning coffee. The second floor offers two bedrooms, including a principal room with built-in storage and a bedroom overlooking the garden, which may also be used as a study. Both are served by a nearby shower room.

The third floor provides a similar layout. The larger bedroom enjoys elevated rooftop views and features exposed beams. Both are fitted with custom-made bunks and are served by a characterful bathroom featuring a roll-top bath.

To the rear, doors open directly onto a tranquil garden. It is a private, leafy sanctuary, enclosed by mature shrubbery and boundary walls that provides a strong sense of seclusion from the outside world. Ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining, it offers a quiet retreat away from the bustle of West London.
