A formal reception room sets a soothing tone, with natural light streaming through a bay window to illuminate decorative cornicing, curated artwork and mirrored accents. Cream sofas invite slow afternoons, while a grand piano is poised for evening gatherings and quiet play. Cosy cinema nights take place in the dedicated television room, complete with an L-shaped sofa; there’s a home library here too, ideal for bookworms. A light-filled office provides a tranquil setting for working from home.
A picture of elegance and refinement, this six-bedroom Italianate-style mansion for rent overlooks a Victorian garden square.
Overview
Inside, classic proportions and ornate detailing echo the grandeur of this esteemed Knightsbridge address, while contemporary artwork, a minimalist tonal palette and flawless materials bring a modern sensibility to the home. Across seven storeys, an interior passenger lift connects sprawling social spaces with serene bedrooms, with a lower-ground level dedicated to wellness – courtesy of a home gym and jacuzzi. Plus, three balconies and access to highly sought-after communal gardens ensure connectivity to the outdoors is never far away.
The living spaces
Kitchen & dining
Flawlessly engineered and awe-inspiring in scale, the kitchen forms the social heart of the home. A waterfall island – paired with sage-green breakfast stools – centres the space and mirrored cabinetry rises towards the soaring ceiling. A large range oven and integrated appliances make light work of hosting, which can spill outdoors in the summer months: arched French windows open onto two private balconies, perfect for morning coffee or an evening aperitif.
The formal dining room brings a note of textural richness, with damask-patterned wallpaper, a striking glass chandelier and upholstered chairs. The long table seats eight, while a discreet home bar is tucked behind a concealed door.
Bedrooms & bathrooms
Natural light and a calm atmosphere defines the bedrooms. Occupying an entire floor, the principal suite is composed in clean lines and neutral tones, with two dedicated dressing rooms featuring rows of full-height wardrobes. Two separate bathrooms serve the space: one wrapped in greyscale marble with an oversized shower, the other finished in pale stone with a generous bathtub and softly diffused light. Five additional bedrooms, including a guest suite, provide restful sanctums for family and friends.
Outside space
First laid out in the 1840s, Ovington Square Garden offers a charming al fresco setting for peaceful moments in nature – shared by the residents of the street. Mature trees and ornamental planting frame the lawns, creating a tranquil backdrop for picnics and gentle strolls.
The neighbourhood
Set within one of London’s most exclusive neighbourhoods, the Knightsbridge Residence places the very best of Chelsea and Knightsbridge at your doorstep. Luxury shopping is catered for at nearby Harrods and Harvey Nichols, or venture to the independent makers and boutiques of Pavilion Road. Hyde Park awaits long runs, early-morning dips in the Serpentine Lido or horse-riding lessons for novices and experienced riders alike. Explore the museums of South Kensington, catch world-class performances at the Royal Albert Hall, then enjoy inventive gastronomy at Dinner by Heston Blumenthal or Pétrus by Gordon Ramsay.
