Flat in London, United Kingdom, 363 m²

Situated on one of Chelsea's most charming streets, this superbly updated five-bedroom home of approximately 3,906 square feet combines neat proportions with an understatedly bold decorative aesthetic. Completely refurbished by the owner in 2021, the home beautifully combines formal entertaining rooms with spacious family areas, decorated with a level of individuality that is rare in pre-built London homes.

The volume is felt immediately. Expanding to nearly 24 feet wide, the main entertaining space impresses with rich Lord Jim Velvet fabric from Vighi and a central Chesneys fireplace. The room is both sophisticated and comfortable, filled with natural light and suitable for both entertaining guests and everyday family life.

Behind the formal living room on the ground floor is a separate study or library, a more intimate space wrapped in Soane fabric, creating a charming nook for reading, working or relaxing away from the main living areas.

On the other side of the hallway, the kitchen and dining room are designed with modern life in mind. A large central island clad in Silestone by 202 Design serves as a natural focal point, while a skylight lets in daylight, enhancing the feeling of spaciousness. There is plenty of space for informal dinners and meetings, making this part of the house especially sociable and cozy.

The lower level features a spacious family and media room, a more relaxed alternative to the formal reception space above. It's ideal for movies, sports weekends, children's games or informal gatherings. This floor also includes a laundry room, wine cellar and a fifth bedroom, ideal for guests, staff or children who want more independence.

The sleeping quarters are distributed on the upper floors and are designed with family life in mind. The master suite takes up a large portion of the ground floor and includes a walk-in closet and bathroom, creating a tranquil space away from the rest of the house. Another large bedroom block is on this level, and two additional bedrooms are located on the second floor with well-appointed bathrooms. Bedrooms on all floors feature soft decorative touches, including delicate Sanderson wallpaper that adds warmth and texture without being too busy.

Outside, the rear deck offers a wonderful extension of the living space—private and green, great for al fresco dining.

Cresswell Place is one of those addresses that is pleasantly hidden but still within close proximity to everything you need. Situated in the Boltons Conservation Area, it is surrounded by some of Chelsea's most beautiful residential streets such as The Boltons, Tregunter Road, Gilston Road and The Little Boltons. It is close to the restaurants, shops and transport links of Chelsea, South Kensington and Knightsbridge, making the address convenient for family life, entertainment and everyday comfort.
