Set within the prestigious Lancaster Gate development, this stunning duplex beautifully harmonises period grandeur and modern sophistication. The building’s bona fide white stucco facade, grand portico entrances, and intricate window surrounds set the tone of the apartment. Upon arrival, residents are greeted by valet parking staff at the carriage entrance. The apartment unfolds over the second and third floors of the building, spanning 2,659 sq. ft. The reception is utterly showstopping, with its original cornicing, 15-foot-high ceiling, and vast windows ushering in ample light. It branches off in an open-plan arrangement into a dining area. Laid with walnut timber flooring, it is an elegant space for entertaining. Adjacent to the dine-in reception is a contemporary kitchen, equipped with top-of-the-line appliances, stone worktops, and porcelain flooring. The principal suite is located on the other end of this floor and comes with a marble ensuite and a spacious dressing room. A powder room completes this floor. The remaining two bedrooms and their marble-clad ensuites are located on the third floor, in addition to a utility room. There are also two mezzanines, one serving as a study and the other as a storage corridor. Finished to an excellent standard, the apartment has Italian-designed fitted wardrobes, fabulous artwork, and feature lighting. Mod cons have been cleverly integrated throughout, including comfort cooling, ceiling and underfloor heating, computerised lighting control, and a ventilation system. The whole apartment is wired to install an AV system of the resident’s choice, and the principal suite boasts a surround sound system tailored for a home theatre setup. The underground parking facility is armed with a remote control system. The intruder alarm, with the option of connecting to a central monitoring centre that alerts key-holders and the police, ensures utmost safety. A further highlight is the gymnasium, which also hosts a spa, a swimming pool, and a steam and treatment room. Set against the backdrop of Hyde Park, Lancaster Gate was originally a parade of fifteen stucco-fronted Grade II-listed houses dating to the mid-19th century. The superb dining and leisure venues of Prime Central London are easily accessible, as are cultural landmarks like Kensington Palace. Transport links are exemplary, with Bayswater, Queensway, and Lancaster Gate stations located within walking distance.
