The amazing Double Bedroom suite of 400 square feet. (37 square metres) with enormous, private en-suite bathroom with full bath tub and separate shower cubicle all in marble. Colossal walk-in closet (the size of a small bedroom) with shelving for all your clothes. High ceilings in the bedroom with beautiful cornices, bookshelves and an elegant chandelier. Huge windows and very light and bright.

This bedroom suite is the same size or bigger than many studio / 1 bedroom apartments nearby which are more expensive. Feel free to go and look at those to compare.

All this private bedroom suite space is within the huge shared, elegant 4 bedroom apartment of 1700+ Square feet (160+ Sq metres) with additional sunny balcony in a superb historic, listed building in the very heart of South Kensington.

Located 4 minute's walk from Gloucester Road tube station: the BEST Zone 1 Transport Hub taking you anywhere such as City financial district (12 minutes), Soho/ Mayfair (8 minutes) etc. Even Kings Cross St Pancras Eurostar is within 17 minutes! (District, Circle and Piccadilly lines / multiple buses and cabs night and day). Santander Cycle Rental is 30 seconds walk away.

The apartment is on the first floor / parlor floor / piano nobile / premier etage (Call it what you will: it is one floor above the street level !) in an extremely quiet enclave (no passing cars) just at Southwell Gardens / Cornwall Gardens SW7.

There really is no other London listing quite like this here.

All rooms have beautiful high ceilings and ornate cornices, flooded with light and very quiet. It is like your own nice private mini-apartment within a fabulous larger apartment.

You will share the whole flat with 2 or 3 other considerate, charming international people who travel a lot yet treat the place as the home that it is.

South Kensington needs no introduction from us in terms of restaurants, shopping, clubs and numerous bars, cafes and other entertainment. Classy Waitrose supermarket is a 2 minute walk away; ditto a 24 hour Tesco and Full-size Sainsbury's plus numerous charming local boutiques..

The magnificent national museums and galleries such as the Victoria & Albert, Natural History and Science museums are our near neighbours and Hyde Park is a short stroll or shorter run from our door. London's very best shopping at Harrods, King's Road, Knightsbridge, Brompton Cross and High Street Kensington along with Notting Hill and Portobello Road are all a pleasant 5, 10 or 15 minute walk or a minute or two in a taxi.

-The apartment has an enormous reception room 42 by 15 feet (14m x 5m) with access to the lovely full length balcony terrace through the beautiful French windows.

-High ceilings throughout (4 metres / 13 ft) with charming ornate cornices and plasterwork.

-Two delightful working fireplaces.

-Full high-speed fibre optic internet access being installed.

-The apartment has a beautifully equipped kitchen with granite worktops, brand new dishwasher , 5-ring gas hob, double oven, microwave, new fridge-freezer, every utensil, Le Creuset pans etc.

-Utility closet with brand new washing machine (and a separate clothes drier if needed.)

-Your room is currently furnished but is not cluttered with landlord paraphernalia: a bed and side tables / nightstands and lamps and a new desk with drawers are provided and other things can be swiftly acquired. A flat screen TV monitor for your computer / Netflix etc. is available too. Plenty of nice linen and towels can easily be provided at move-in.

-Super clean and sanitary. We have just recruited a delightful, trustworthy French-speaking cleaning lady (whom you can also separately pay her to do bits of ironing etc.)

- The entire apartment and bedrooms are very, very quiet and the tree-lined street is away from any passing traffic.

Suitable for professionals and serious students coming to London to work hard during the week but also relax at the weekend, invite friends over and make the best of the best neighbourhood in London.

--There is a relaxed style here and rooms are big enough to have your own spacious zone completely to yourself and yet we are happy when we overlap to hang out together.

Pets: We love 'em and they can certainly visit, just not be resident!

Smokers: No problem - There is the huge outdoor balcony terrace.

Couples: See "Pets" above! Love ya loads (and do come and visit) but this is best for solo professionals individually. Your guests are always welcome to come and stay.
- However: We will CONSIDER a nice couple on an experimental 2 month basis and will apply the standard 33% additional share giving a weekly rent of £565.25.

Please remember: we always seek the "right" person rather than the "right now" person, since the style of the place is super relaxed and low-pressure while also being super clean and efficient. It is a home not a house and it is difficult not to love it straight away.

(I looked at 47 other places before finding this one... I have done the looking for you! )

Greatly looking forward to hearing from you and to showing you around this beautiful place.

Best regards,

Peter :-)

The huge bedroom and the palatial living room make this even easier.

=============================

THE CONDITIONS! THE CONDITIONS! THE CONDITIONS!
(Don't worry, we laughed too.)

1- Don't even BOTHER asking us about this place for extra photos etc via the hopeless Spareroom messaging system. See all over our writing here for repetition of this. It takes three days to exchange simple messages telling you that Spareroom does not allow this. This is the Number One waste of everyone's time.


2 - WhatsApp / Text / Telephone us ONLY. Our verified numbers are clearly visible and available in the relevant “Contact” box on this listing. If you do not have the "Early Bird" upgrade and cannot see the numbers then at the very least include your name and telephone number in your message here.
-- Spareroom. co. uk also FORBID putting telephone numbers and email addresses in the body of this description. (We cannot write our numbers or email addresses right here, for example.)

If you have got plenty of time to squander, then PLEASE go ahead and write to us via Spareroom. co. uk messaging system.

Without being unpleasant about it, we simply do NOT have time to waste laboriously replying… every message swap takes 3 days. each way. Write on Monday; Hear back on Saturday. WE NO LONGER BOTHER REPLYING TO MESSAGES SENT VIA SPAREROOM WITH NO TELEPHONE NUMBER.

Avoiding this is not too much to ask.

3 - Please, please, please do not communicate merely to ask whether the room is still available. If you are seeing this listing it means that the room IS STILL AVAILABLE. this May Simple, right?

4 - This description of the beautiful apartment approaches 2,000 words in length. Spareroom staff have told us that it is one of the best and most descriptive and helpful listings on this entire website. We are very happy to tell you even more about it and about us, the people who live here. PLEASE: Do not ask us these questions if you do not TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT YOURSELF. That's basic courtesy and friendliness, which are hallmarks of this house.


5 - If you are any kind of AGENT then just GIVE UP NOW. We will NEVER deal with agents. Go and annoy someone else.
There are no “professional fees” attached to our flatmates moving in to share this place.
