The Gloucester welcomes you to one of Kensington’s most picturesque settings, overlooking the lovely Cornwall Gardens from a classic Victorian building just off Gloucester Road. Set across two levels, this four-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home sleeps up to six guests and feels immediately inviting, with a south-facing balcony and views over the garden square from the living room and two bedrooms. With Kensington’s museums, cafés, shops and Tube connections close by, it offers the rare feeling of a peaceful garden-square setting in the heart of London.

Inside, the living spaces have a warm, characterful English style that makes it easy to settle in from the moment you arrive. The comfortable living room opens onto a balcony overlooking the gardens, where a small table is perfect for breakfast outdoors or an evening drink. A separate dining room just off the kitchen features a long wooden table, perfect for gathering with family and friends, while the fully equipped kitchen has large windows that bring in lovely natural light.

The bedrooms are arranged across the two levels. Bedroom 1 is a spacious suite on the upper floor with an en suite bathroom and beautiful garden views. Bedroom 2 is located on the main level near the kitchen and offers a quiet corner nook with a chair for reading and a desk, along with its own en suite bathroom with a bathtub. Upstairs, bedroom 3 includes built-in storage and a desk, while bedroom 4 has a charming reading nook and a loft bed accessed by ladder. A third bathroom with a bathtub is set on the half landing between levels, and there is also a convenient powder room near the living room.

The location is just as appealing as the home itself. Set just off Gloucester Road in sought-after Kensington, The Gloucester places you within easy walking distance of some of London’s most celebrated cultural landmarks, including the Victoria and Albert Museum, Kensington Palace and the boutiques and cafés of High Street Kensington. With the Tube only three blocks away and everyday conveniences like Marks & Spencer nearby, it’s an ideal base for enjoying London at your own pace.

Please Note: The apartment is located on the second floor with no elevator.
