A freehold period house in one of South Kensington’s most sought-after residential streets, offering 2,090 sq ft (194 sq m) of accommodation arranged over three floors and presenting an exceptional refurbishment opportunity.
Situated on the preferred western side of Clareville Street, this elegant double-fronted house enjoys an attractive facade, wonderful natural light and unusually generous lateral space for the area.

The raised ground floor is dominated by a wonderful double aspect 24'8 x 19'5 reception room, a guest cloakroom and further access to the garden.
On the first floor there are three bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom, and two bathrooms.
