Property description
Arranged over the first and second floors and entered via its own front door, this is a substantial and wonderfully arranged maisonette with delightful views south towards St Luke's Church with its prominent spire, one of Chelsea's most famous landmarks. On the first floor there is a full width reception room spanning 26ft and providing both a delightful seating area as well as a more formal dining area with access through to the kitchen/breakfast room. The property has been in the same ownership since the 1980s and whilst perfectly arranged, it would now benefit from some updating throughout.
Sydney Mews is located off the Fulham road just to the north of the junction with Sydney Street. As such it is incredibly convenient for South Kensington underground station as well as all the shops, bars and restaurants of Chelsea and South Kensington.
