Classic but evolving
Our homes are Grade II listed and sit in one of the few London terraces with uniform front and rear facades. Unique covenants protect the Georgian exterior, preserving this quintessential slice of London. Not wanting to be left behind, homeowners have worked with the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea to enhance their homes with basement pools, cinemas, indoor garden atriums and other desirable amenities. Basements have been completed for all homes, avoiding future hassle from any basement construction disruption. The underground parking is great for busy families with direct access to homes.
~5000 square feet
4+ bedrooms over 6 floors
Flexible interiors including converted basements
Underground parking with EV charging points
We bought our home over two decades ago and appreciate the first class management team who look after gardens and common parts including 24/7 security & CCTV, decoration, external repairs, maintenance and cleaning of the terrace and garage.
Room with a view
Garden access is provided to all Earls Terrace homeowners, which is great for families with children. The residences sit back from Kensington High Street and offers over three acres of managed greenery from the 1/2 acre formal front graden, private rear gardens and 3-acre Edwardes Square Key Garden. Feel like you're living in the English countryside without ever leaving Zone 1.
Private and secure
Earls Terrace is a private and secure location suitable for families. It is set back from Kensington High Street and has a private underground car park with 76 privately-owned spaces, some with EV charging capabilities. The terrace itself has 24/7 security with guards and a CCTV system for common areas. Upon request, the staff are always happy to help assist with post deliveries, contractor access, misplaced keys and welcoming visitors.
We have greatly enjoyed the pleasures of 'country living' in the heart of Kensington. Confident of our family's safety and comfort during my frequent business travels, we have appreciated the convenience of 24/7 security surveillance, private subterranean parking and outstanding concierge services.
