Harrington Gardens is one of South Kensington’s most sought-after streets, lined with towering red-brick mansion blocks that surround the residents’ communal gardens. Contained within a historic townhouse is this sophisticated three-bedroom triplex apartment, imagined with refined design, contemporary technologies and a wholly welcoming atmosphere. Ascend to the second floor and enter an open-plan kitchen, dining and reception room. The spacious footprint and trio of sash windows — with views of leafy Gloucester Park — are an elegant backdrop for modern interiors; an inviting sitting area is arranged around a marble fireplace, while a dining table is positioned beneath glass pendant lighting. An archway leads into the culinary space, which has been drawn with charcoal-blue cabinets, smooth wood worktops and a central island complete with breakfast stools. Head up to the third floor, where a glittering mosaic piece by Italian artist Marialuisa Tadei captures attention. On the half-landing, things take a dramatic turn in the television room; dark walls, a plush L-shaped sofa and neon wall lights create a cosy feel. The principal bedroom can be found on this level, crafted with pared-back colours and a cushioned window seat. Its en suite bathroom is bright and refreshing, with a range of marble tiling that wraps around a wide sink and bathtub. A set of steps also leads to one of the guest bedroom suites, which enjoys its own dressing area. An additional guest bedroom suite occupies the entire fourth floor — a minimalist setting with whitewashed walls and reams of natural light. Crowning the property is a private roof terrace, surrounded in cast-iron railings. Complete with wicker dining furniture, it’s an ideal spot to make the most of London’s sunny days. The home also has access to the communal residents’ garden, featuring mature trees, stone pathways and picnic benches. Location Some of London’s most revered museums along Exhibition Road are within walking distance, putting Harrington Gardens at the centre of the cultural action. Coveted local restaurants such as Macellaio rc, Cambio De Tercio, Yashin Ocean House and Margaux are just minutes from your front door, perfect for get-togethers after a stroll around Brompton Cemetery — one of the capital’s seven historic burial grounds. It’s not far to reach the upmarket retail offerings along Chelsea’s Kings Road too, followed by an evening at speakeasy bar Evans & Peel or with live music at The Troubadour. Gloucester Road (3 mins)
