3 bed terraced house to rent

Park Walk, Chelsea, London SW10

Sitting between Fulham Road and the King’s Road, this home serves up the space to press pause on the world beyond the front door. With its striking brick façade and leafy front garden, it makes a eye-catching sight on its pretty Chelsea street.

Inside, there’s plenty to energise and soothe. Light diffuses softly across four floors. Wooden floorboards run underfoot while tall ceilings and white walls provide the perfect gallery backdrop for vibrant artwork.

The open-plan living area has a bright outlook. Light pours in through sash windows that bookend the space. All terracotta upholstery and lemon-yellow textiles. Kick back in the reading nook’s chaise-longue or pull up an armchair by the inviting marble fireplace.

In the warmer months, open the doors to the courtyard patio garden, a hidden oasis of foliage, where a towering screen of bamboo provides a secluded backdrop for al fresco dining.

The open-plan kitchen-dining room is ergonomically designed for entertaining. At lower ground floor level, the muted light is easy on the eyes down here, and a second period fireplace brings a warmth to the space. Integrated Miele appliances, striking wooden cabinetry and views out over the garden make for a standout culinary setting.

Upstairs, a pared-bared colour palette in the bedrooms brings a sense of calm. The principal bedroom enjoys a walk-in wardrobe and Juliet balcony, drenching the space in natural light. Sash windows do similar in two further bedrooms. From here, access one of two bathrooms: The textured Zellige tiles of a huge walk-in shower catch the sun on the first floor, while up on the second floor, a pistachio green mosaic design surrounds a tub.

All the delights Chelsea has to offer are on your doorstep at Park Walk.

Before dinner at Bottarga and a film at The Everyman. For special occasions, book a table at two-Michelin-starred Claude Bosi at Bibendum.
