Considered one of London's most prestigious postcodes, Kensington is rife with upscale eateries, world-class boutiques and beautiful white stucco townhouses. And this sophisticated apartment is smack-dab in the centre of it all, walking distance to Hyde Park, Kensington Palace and the Natural History Museum. It's easy to get around the rest of London, too – Gloucester Road Station is only a five-minute stroll away – and with so many places to grab a bite or a drink after a day out and about in the city, you'll love calling this neighbourhood home. The apartment itself is minimal and modern, decorated with neutral colours and sleek furniture. It's exactly what we would expect for this area, with a few characterful touches like the crown moulding, quirky wallpaper and glittering chandelier. The kitchen is fully-equipped for cooking, and with a music system, DVD player and satellite channels, you'll have plenty to keep you occupied when you crave a relaxed night at home.

About South Kensington
South Kensington is probably most famous for being home to some of London’s top museums (The Victoria & Albert Museum, Natural History Museum, and Science Museum) and so you don’t need to wander far to see some of the city’s greatest treasures. World-class Hyde Park is just a stone’s throw away and there are plenty of great bars and cafes on the delightful pedestrianised end of Exhibition Road, packed full...
