A grand reception room with soaring ceilings and original period detail gives this one-bedroom apartment an impressive sense of scale. The property lies on the ground floor of an elaborate red-brick period building in the heart of Chelsea, moments from the shops and restaurants of the King’s Road. Extending across approximately 626 sq ft, the apartment is arranged around a generous reception and dining room measuring more than 20 ft in length. Intricate ceiling plasterwork, wall panelling and a decorative fireplace retain the character of the building, while a wide bay window draws in natural light. The separate kitchen has granite worktops and ample cabinetry. The double bedroom is fitted with a full wall of built-in wardrobes and is served by a bathroom with a bath and overhead shower. Further storage is provided from the entrance hall. Draycott Place runs between Sloane Square and Chelsea Green, placing some of the neighbourhood’s best restaurants, cafés and independent shops close at hand. The King’s Road, Pavilion Road and Duke of York Square are all within easy walking distance, while Sloane Square Underground station provides direct connections across London via the District and Circle lines.
