Hobury Street, London

House in Chelsea, London

Occupying a commanding, end of terrace position on this highly sought-after street in Chelsea, this exceptional period house was rebuilt by the current owners and elegantly redesigned to create a unique family home that teams excellent design with state of the art, eco-friendly technology.The pillared entrance is reached via a front, paved garden and leads onto a welcoming tiled entrance hall. Occupying the raised ground floor is a wonderful and bright dual-aspect reception room with gas fireplace and extensive bespoke joinery, whilst the guest cloakroom and a side entrance onto the garden are also reached from the hallway. A fully-fitted, bespoke kitchen with Wolf appliances is on the lower ground level and leads to a south-facing dining room with gas fireplace to the front with boot room/utility room to the rear. The kitchen also leads onto a wide staircase up to a generous paved garden with planted borders containing mature shrubbery including a large banana tree. There is a study on the first floor landing whilst a wonderful master bedroom suite occupies the entire first floor and contains ample fitted wardrobes. On the second floor is the main guest bedroom and bathroom whilst the top floor is used as a study and benefits from a south facing-roof terrace but could easily be converted into an additional bedroom. On the half landings are a further bedroom/snug as well as the plant room, which contains the services.The house is unique in its environmentally low-impact functionality and contains technology seldom seen in London houses such as an air filtration and heat recovery system, rainwater harvesting, sophisticated insulation on all walls and underfloor heating throughout. The elegant design of the house has been carefully considered to ensure that there is maximum light throughout whilst the bespoke staircase creates a wonderful centrepiece.Hobury Street is arguably the finest address within the Ten Acre Estate and ideally situated close to the many local amenities and transport links of both the Kings Road and the Fulham Road.
