The space
This elegant South Kensington garden house seamlessly blends historical charm with modern luxury. Sunlight floods the space through skylights, while the herringbone parquet flooring adds a classic touch. The home, originally built in the Victorian era, features intricate moldings and damask wallpaper, offering a refined atmosphere for adults. Meanwhile, children will enjoy the inviting family room and unique treehouse-style bed. Located just a 10-minute walk from the iconic Victoria & Albert Museum, this villa is perfectly situated for those looking to explore London’s rich cultural heritage.

After a day of sightseeing, unwind in the private courtyard, complete with a charcoal-burning barbecue, or enjoy one of the U.K.'s quintessential cocktails, a Pimm's cup. If the weather isn't favorable, the house offers a range of indoor entertainment options. Sonos sound system, high-speed Wi-Fi, and a games room.

The house retains its Victorian elegance with a stucco exterior, columned entrance, and large windows that enhance the feeling of space. Contemporary touches, such as a brown velour sofa and marble countertops in the kitchen, create a seamless blend of old and new.
