Located at the south eastern end of this beautiful residential address, this elegant house combines historical significance, architectural charm, and modern luxury.
Beautifully designed three-bedroom house with a rich artistic history is close to the King's Road. Entering the house on the ground floor, you step into a spacious staircase hall. On one side is a recently fitted kitchen with a central island breakfast bar and an informal dining area. On the other side is a comfortable reception room with inbuilt shelving. Beyond lies a bedroom with an en suite bathroom and storage space.
The first floor features a generous principal bedroom. It includes a dressing room, an ensuite bathroom with a bath, a boudoir and a French door with views down the length of Mallord Street, which leads onto the roof garden.
The western orientation means the room is filled with light from the afternoon sun. This floor also contains a second bedroom with en suite bathroom and a guest WC.
The second floor is almost entirely occupied by a magnificent studio space. This includes double-height ceilings, an impressive fireplace and exceptionally large windows. There is also a panelled library area with inbuilt shelving and a bar. Between the First and Second floors there is a mezzanine floor housing a private light-filled study.
The house has been tastefully decorated to a high standard, blending classical and contemporary details while taking full advantage of the exceptional proportions.
The house was built in 1911 for the watercolourist Cecil Arthur Hunt. Its architect was Ralph Knott, who was best known for designing the London County Hall building.
This is a perfect example of the 'studio house', with a large space for painting on the top floor to take full advantage of the light. The house was also home to the world-renowned Hungarian pianist Louis Kentner. More recently, the studio space has been used to host recitals, recalling this rich cultural history.
In addition, the roof garden on the first floor which has wooden decking. The property also includes a garage with off-street parking
