Princes Gate, South Kensington

Situated within one of South Kensington’s most coveted addresses, Montrose House enjoys an exceptional position on Exhibition Road, moments from the Royal Albert Hall and Kensington Gardens. Set within a magnificent Grade II-listed, 19th-century stucco-fronted terrace, this impressive first floor apartment combines elegant period proportions with a sophisticated contemporary finish.

Arranged over two levels and extending to almost 1,500 sq ft, the property is exceptionally light and airy, with soaring high ceilings and large sash windows framing attractive views over this prestigious enclave of West London. Immaculately presented throughout, the interior is finished in a refined neutral palette, complemented by engineered wood flooring across much of the accommodation.

The apartment opens into an entrance hall leading to a stylish kitchen, with space for dining. It is fitted with sleek gloss cabinetry and integrated appliances including a dishwasher and gas hob. The kitchen provides direct access to a private roof terrace, seamlessly extending the living space outdoors.

A generous dual-aspect reception room also enjoys access to the terrace and offers an elegant setting for both entertaining and everyday living.

Stairs rise to a mezzanine level, where there is a practical utility room and the principal bedroom suite with built-in wardrobes and a contemporary shower room. Two further bedrooms are situated on the first-floor’s lower split level and are served by a stylish family bathroom.

This property’s private roof terrace enjoys a fabulous aspect, with views along the grand architecture of Exhibition Road. The terrace particularly comes into its own during the summer months, offering a rare slice of outdoor living space in central London. To the rear, the property looks out across to the leafy surroundings of Prince’s Gardens.

Its exceptional position places the apartment moments from the open green spaces of Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park, offering a rare combination of tranquillity and connectivity in the heart of South Kensington
