The apartment is nestled in the picturesque Draycott Place, a historic street in Old Chelsea, just a short walk from Sloane Square and the vibrant King's Road. This prime location offers guests easy access to the upscale shops of Knightsbridge and the cultural treasures of South Kensington, including renowned museums. Owned by an interior designer, the apartment showcases a blend of style and comfort, making it an ideal retreat for families or small groups, accommodating up to five guests with its two bedrooms and versatile sleeping arrangements.
The master bedroom is equipped with a UK King/USA Queen bed and features an ensuite bathroom complete with a tub, although it lacks a shower. A second bathroom offers a full walk-in shower for added convenience. The smaller guest room can be configured with one or two single beds, though it is more suited for children sharing due to the limited space. Additionally, the living room provides an option for a fifth guest to sleep on a sofa that doubles as a day bed, enhancing the apartment's flexibility for various group sizes.
Guests will find modern amenities throughout the apartment, including three televisions, a Blu Ray and DVD multi-region system, cable service, and wireless internet. A cozy dining nook with a skylight adds to the charm of the living area, while a small rear patio caters to smokers, as smoking is prohibited indoors. However, potential guests should note that the apartment is situated on the Lower Ground level and accessed via steep, narrow stairs, requiring agility for all visitors.
Conveniently located within the London City Centre, the apartment offers proximity to iconic landmarks such as Buckingham Palace and Marble Arch, as well as the natural beauty of Hyde Park and Finsbury Park. Guests can easily explore the city, with the Sloane Square underground station nearby and the option to take the scenic number 19 or 22 bus to Piccadilly Circus, providing a unique vantage point of London's attractions from the top of the famous red double-decker buses. Notable sites like the London Eye and the Natural History Museum are also within reach, ensuring a memorable stay in the heart of London.
