Beautiful family house overlooking Queen’s Elm Square

The ground floor is given over to an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and reception room that runs the full depth of the house. Bespoke hardwood cabinetry and high-quality integrated appliances bring warmth and practicality to the kitchen, while the proportions allow for generous dining and relaxed everyday living. It is a space designed for family life, but one that still feels smart enough for entertaining.

On the lower ground floor, a large media room provides a more secluded space, whether used as a cinema room, sitting room or playroom. This level also incorporates a utility room and a fourth bedroom, making it especially useful for guests, older children or live-in help.

The first floor is devoted to the principal suite, with a substantial bedroom to the front enjoying the square-facing outlook and a separate dressing room positioned behind. The effect is considered and distinctly well designed. Upstairs, two further ensuite bedrooms occupy the second floor, both well proportioned; both open to balconies, one from the bedroom itself and one from the bathroom. Above, a loft space adds another useful layer, ideal for storage or occasional use.

Throughout, the finish is turn-key and cohesive, with oak stripped flooring, marble bathrooms and bespoke oak detailing lending a sense of quiet consistency from floor to floor. Off-street parking adds another rarity for this part of Chelsea, as does the gated setting and direct access to the central communal garden square.

Queen’s Elm Square was built between 1904 and 1906 for the Sloane Stanley Estate, and remains one of the area’s most distinctive enclaves. Its Neo-Tudor houses have an almost storybook quality, yet the address is brilliantly placed for the everyday rhythm of Chelsea, with Fulham Road and the King’s Road close at hand for restaurants, shops and local institutions. It is a pocket of SW3 that feels private and quietly characterful, while still deeply connected to the neighbourhood around it.
