Lovely Georgian house in Pimlico – sleeps 3 + 1 child.  Map

Those looking for a genuine slice of London history need look no further than this property, which was been built by Thomas Cubitt – master builder in the second quarter of the 19th century. He who was also responsible for building part of Buckingham Palace!.

Situated on an attractive Georgian street, this house is ideally located for Tate Britain, the Houses of Parliament, Kings Road and Buckingham Palace – which are all within 10-20 minutes walking distance. Alternatively there are excellent transport links in the area with the convenient number 24 bus and Victoria, Sloane Square and Pimlico tube stations equidistant from the house - around 10 minutes on foot.

The property is suitable for 3 adults, plus a child (max 10 years old) who could be accommodated on a sofa in the study. There are two bathrooms.

There is broadband internet access.

The front door opens onto a narrow hallway which features high-ceilings and is adorned with an eclectic mix of framed artwork.

The drawing room is beautiful – with high ceilings, huge sash windows that let the afternoon sunshine simply spill into the space, ornate fireplace and a varnished wooden floor. There is a TV (5 channels), DVD player and a CD player - bring your own CDs. Two 2-seater sofas, chaise longue and several chairs means that there isn’t a shortage of seating options and lend themselves to the character of the room. A fascinating collection of artwork and shelves lined with books create a traditional and homely living area.

A few steps further lead to a kitchen/dining area with open plan access from the drawing room (27.9ft x 16ft, 8.46m x 4.88m. The door on the right leads into the kitchen area which features all the necessary appliances including an oven, gas hob, fridge freezer, kettle, cafetiere and dishwasher (but no microwave). The kitchen is light and airy and features a dining table with four chairs which are located between the kitchen and drawing room – making it ideal for entertaining guests.

Stairs lead to a half landing with a bathroom/laundry room with sink, shower, loo and washing machine.

The next set of stairs lead to a cosy study room, which has access to a small yet attractive balcony. The room boasts traditional parquet flooring and a desk with chair. The balcony provides an area to sit and enjoy the views of the surrounding houses and has a selection of potted plants and several palm trees.

There is another study room on the floor above which could be used to accommodate a child (max 10 years old). The room has a sofa, desk, chair and a set of drawers.

The main bedroom (16ft x 11.6ft, 4.88m x 3.51m) has its own ensuite bathroom – which feels spacious due to the high ceilings and large mirror. The bathroom has a bath with over shower, loo and basin. The bedroom has been decorated in a classic style with floral curtains, neutral carpet and salmon toned walls with framed landscapes. There’s a double bed, fitted wardrobe, two large windows, chest of drawers, chair and bedside tables with lamps.

The second bedroom (12ft x 8ft, 3.66m x 2.44m) has a single bed and a bedside table with lamp. Again the room benefits from plenty of light and is decorated with framed paintings.

The location of this property is excellent – with easy access to the bustle of the city but also to the quiet green spaces of Hyde Park, Green Park and Battersea Park which are all within 15 minutes of the property.

Sloane Street and Kings Road, areas which will satisfy even the most discerning shopper, are a 10 minute walk from the house – there's also a host of renowned galleries nearby including Tate Britain and the Saatchi Gallery. To experience something local, foodies will enjoy the Pimlico Road Farmers' Market every Saturday which is 5 minutes from the property and sells a host of delicious locally sourced products. Restaurants, shops, galleries, museums and markets – this area has it all!

This is a No Smoking property.
