Property Description

A very tastefully upgraded and presented duplex conversion located on the prestigious Kensington Gate built circa 1902 to 1903 by David Barclay of H & D Barclay. This locally admired ‘B’ listed Edwardian townhouse conversion overlooks immaculately tended residents pleasure gardens to the front and has had the original period boundary cast iron railings beautifully restored. Formed over the ground and lower ground floor levels, the accommodation is very versatile and flows effortlessly to include a ground floor reception hallway with study/store off, a fabulous lounge/principal bedroom, two further generous double bedrooms, a snug, utility room and four-piece bathroom. On the lower level there is a very stylish reconfigured living/dining room with a contemporary open plan kitchen. Outside, there is a private area of garden and the residents garden beyond features a large lawned area, seating areas, built-in barbeque, gazebo and play areas. Internally the property is immaculately presented and retains many period features.
