An elegant family house with a summer house and elevator on one of London's most historic streets. Upon entering through a guarded gate on the raised ground floor, the front hall opens into a spacious kitchen, including an informal breakfast area with a large south-facing window.

At the end of the corridor is a classic-style dining room with three French doors opening onto the garden and a magnificent light dome flooding the space with natural light. There is also a laundry room and a guest toilet on this floor.

The lower ground floor can serve as separate apartments. Currently, there is a bedroom with a bathroom and access to a patio, a kitchenette and a second bedroom/living room. Also on this level there is a wine cellar, a pantry and a separate exit to the street.

On the ground floor there is an impressive living room with high ceilings and a bay window overlooking the river. There is also an office and another guest toilet.

The second floor is fully occupied by the magnificent master bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, which includes a large bathtub, a bright and stylish bedroom, a walk-in closet and two additional walk-in closets.

On the third floor there are three more bedrooms and two bathrooms, one of which has a bathroom. There is another bedroom on the second floor.

The beautiful interiors of the house are well preserved, and the main living areas are decorated in a traditional style. Despite its unique architecture, the house is not an architectural heritage site, and an elevator connects all its levels.

The house includes an attractive rear garden with a dining area, paved walkway and planted borders. The garden leads to a spacious summer house or garden studio, which can be used as a guest apartment with a kitchen, bathroom, living area and a mezzanine bedroom. Two stylish modern light domes ensure the creation of a large amount of light in this space.

Unusually for this street, the property features a magnificent rooftop terrace with a Jacuzzi, an outdoor bar, and a sheltered seating area with 360-degree views. It offers magnificent views of the wide strip of the River Thames, from Battersea Power Station to Chelsea Harbour and beyond.

The house is also set back from the street and surrounded by a front garden, which provides additional privacy.

Cheyne Walk is one of the most historic streets in London. In the 19th and 20th centuries, this street was home to many famous figures, including writers George Eliot and Bertrand Russell, artists Dante Gabriel Rossetti and J. M. W. Turner, actress Elizabeth Taylor and politician David Lloyd George. Recently, it has been occupied by well-known representatives of business, art and even the royal family.

Today, this street is conveniently located in the south, next to the Thames Embankment, with the Albert Bridge leading to Battersea Park. To the north is King's Road with a great selection of restaurants and shops. In addition, the beautiful Chelsea Physic Garden is nearby, and next door is Lindsey House, the oldest house in Kensington and Chelsea.
