Penthouse, Prince of Wales Terrace, Kensington, London, W8

Prince of Wales Terrace, W8 is a boutique collection of 13 elegant and spacious newly refurbished apartments housed in a Stucco-fronted building from the early 1860s. Moments from the tranquillity of Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park and only a short walk from the hustle of Kensington High Street and Notting Hill.

Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac, the apartments here are the epitome of luxury and period design. An impressive marble-floored entrance leads onto a grand staircase and lifts lobby, all set off by low-level lighting. The apartments have all been sensitively restored with many period features retained including working fireplaces, sash windows and high ceilings. Every home has a private terrace or balcony with Victorian chequerboard tiling.
