2 bed flat to rent

Egerton Gardens, London SW3

Beyond a handsome Victorian red brick façade, a classic and clean reimagining of heritage living unfolds. A double reception room sits to the front, with a duo of bay windows, and French doors that open onto a private southeast-facing balcony. Stretching from floor to ceiling, the windows flood the space with natural light, illuminating oak floors, white walls and marble fireplaces at either end.

Through double doors, a contemporary kitchen is subtly separated from the entertaining space. Glossy black counters sit atop sleek white cabinetry, integrated with high-end appliances. French doors extend the room onto a rear balcony, offering elevated views over the communal garden.

Another pair of double doors lead from the reception room into a more intimate communal space, fitted with floor-to-ceiling storage, a compact modern fireplace and access to a third balcony. From here, steps descend to the principal bedroom suite, where the restrained palette continues. Its en suite bathroom is generous and serene, with a tiled bath, separate shower and direct access to the balcony overlooking the gardens. On the floor below, a guest bedroom suite echoes the same calm aesthetic and thoughtful layout.

On a handsome street 15 minutes’ walk from Hyde Park, this eye-catching apartment is close to some of London’s best attractions and restaurants. Choose between the V&A Museum and the world-famous Royal Albert Hall, just a short stroll away. Local Michelin-starred restaurants include Amaya for refined Indian cuisine or Dinner by Heston Blumenthal for molecular gastronomy. Alternatively, spend the evening at Dinings SW3 before enjoying a nightcap at The Wilton Arms.
