Spread over three floors, this low-rise, wide-plan home has a captivating interior, cozy living spaces and an interesting history. Built in 1911 for Cecil Arthur Hunt, a famous watercolor artist of the early 20th century, it later became home to the famous Hungarian pianist Louis Kentner. Recently renovated with inspiring design and superb finishes, it has retained its cultural heritage.
The entrance vestibule leads to a reception area equipped with built-in shelving. At the other end of the foyer is a spacious kitchen with a central breakfast island, a casual dining area, and an adjoining outdoor area adorned with trees and lush landscaping—a quiet sanctuary not far from the bustling world. There is also a bedroom on this level.
The main floor master bedroom is impressively proportioned, with a luxurious en-suite bathroom and spacious walk-in closet. It features a French door leading out onto a beautiful terrace with stunning views to the west onto Mallord Street. There is also another bedroom and a dressing room on the ground floor.
The third floor is entirely dedicated to the art studio. High ceilings of up to 4 meters and large windows, some reaching to the ceiling, allow in an abundance of natural light. A magnificent fireplace adds to the sense of grandeur, while a paneled wood nook serves as a library. The studio has hosted concerts in recent years as the owner is a pianist, a tribute to its rich artistic heritage. The landscaped area of the third floor accommodates an inconspicuous, bright office.
A timber deck sits on top of a spacious, secure garage that also serves as a flat roof. The utility room in the attic is another plus.
This property is located on Mallord Street, named after Joseph Mallord William Turner, an English romantic artist. The cozy street of Edwardian Arts and Crafts houses has been home to numerous artists, writers and intellectuals over the years. Especially A. A. Milne, the author of the Winnie the Pooh series, lived here.
Chelsea's great dining, shopping and entertainment options are within walking distance, as are the green spaces of Battersea Park. The famous King's Road is just steps away. South Kensington and Sloane Square tube stations provide excellent transport links throughout London.
