A Duplex Apartment on Hans Place

A Duplex Apartment on Hans Place

The apartment is entered on the third floor, with private direct lift access opening into the home. It is arranged across the fourth and fifth levels. The fourth floor is dedicated to entertaining: a vast drawing and dining room of double height, where tall sash windows and elegant proportions create a rare sense of volume. Adjoining, a marble-clad kitchen is centred around a striking waterfall island, with double doors opening to a snug designed for more casual moments, complete with bespoke joinery and a discreet TV nook. This level also includes a generous guest bedroom with ensuite shower room and a separate bathroom.

The fifth floor is arranged as private quarters. The principal suite is of impressive scale, with a walk-in wardrobe and a marble bathroom appointed with double sinks, a freestanding bath and walk-in shower. A second bedroom suite includes its own dressing room and access to eaves storage.

The current owners have invested heavily in upgrading the property, introducing bespoke storage and thoughtful joinery throughout. The result is a home that feels both established and entirely up to date.

Hans Place itself is an address of particular prestige: an octagonal garden square laid out in the late 18th century, later rebuilt by Cadogan Estates in the celebrated Pont Street Dutch style. Its private central gardens offer a rare pocket of calm, reserved exclusively for residents.

Knightsbridge lies immediately beyond the square, with Harrods a near neighbour and the boutiques of Sloane Street and Pavilion Road moments away. Hyde Park is within easy reach, while Sloane Square connects to Chelsea and the King’s Road. Few addresses offer such a balance of tranquillity and city life.
