About this home
Positioned on the fourth floor of an attractive period conversion on Emperor’s Gate, this well-proportioned two-bedroom apartment extends to approximately 783 sq ft and enjoys an abundance of natural light throughout.
The accommodation is centred around an impressive open-plan kitchen, reception and dining room. Three large windows flood the space with natural light, creating a bright and inviting setting with ample room for both relaxing and entertaining.
Peacefully positioned to the rear are two generous double bedrooms, both benefiting from fitted wardrobes. The principal bedroom is served by an en-suite bathroom, while the second bedroom has convenient access to a separate family shower room.
The apartment benefits from solid wood flooring, excellent natural light and a practical lateral layout. A loft hatch provides access to the undemised flat roof above.

The world-renowned museums of Exhibition Road are nearby, together with the open spaces of Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens.
