Flat to rent in Sheffield Terrace, Kensington, London W8

One of Kensington's finest apartments, this magnificent penthouse sits discreetly on top of Campden House on Sheffield Terrace in one of the most exclusive neighbourhoods in the Royal Borough. The property has undergone an extensive refurbishment.

Constructed in 1961 by the current owning family, and following instructions to create a "garden in the sky" for his wife, the apartment has perhaps the largest private roof terrace in Kensington with beautiful York Stone, mature trees including Twisted Willow and Apple, and landscaped flower beds full of Roses, Lavender and Salvias running the entire length of the property. Furthermore, being positioned on almost the highest point in Kensington & Chelsea affords the most incredible views over the glorious communal gardens and across London beyond. Arranged over the top two floors (5th & 6th) and measuring approximately 5000 sqft), all the principal rooms enjoy a southern aspect that maximises the natural light and outlook over the gardens and beyond.

Campden House was built at the end of the 19th century and is a late Victorian Architecture on the southern side of Sheffield Terrace with direct access into beautiful communal gardens, which are some of the most outstanding in Kensington. Looked after by a Resident Porter service, the building has a reputation for providing grand accommodation in a discreet atmosphere.

The immediate neighbourhood consist of tree lined streets and has a community feel whilst also being extremely well located for many excellent shops and restaurants, convenient transport links such as the Central, District & Circle Lines at either Notting Hill Gate and / or High Street Kensington Underground Stations, a number of highly regarded schools and the open spaces of both Kensington Gardens and Holland Park.
