Egerton Gardens

Occupying the top two floors of an impressive red-brick townhouse, this three-bedroom duplex apartment for rent is light-filled and considered.

From its penthouse vantage point, this heritage home delivers far-reaching views and two floors of period character. The lift opens directly into a bright central hallway, where generous living spaces unfold with gallery-like proportions. Oak flooring leads the eye towards a versatile study or dining area, anchored by a contemporary fireplace and streamlined built-in cabinetry.

Beyond double doors, a full-width reception room combines scale and elegance. Light pours through six sash windows, drawing attention to detailed cornicing and traditional cast-iron radiators. At one end, a midnight-blue media unit with subtle bronze lighting creates a refined setting for relaxed evenings. At the other, the kitchen is neatly concealed behind doors – its handleless units, polished black worktops and integrated appliances adding a crisp, modern contrast to the home’s Victorian framework. From here, stairs lead to the home’s private terrace – a serene outdoor area among the Knightsbridge rooftops, perfect for al fresco evenings during the warmer months.

Upstairs, a skylit staircase leads to the sleeping quarters. Sisal carpet is comfortable underfoot as you enter the principal suite, where twin sash windows frame views of the leafy street below. A discreet walk-in wardrobe maximises storage, while the en suite bathroom maintains a calm, spa-like atmosphere with a dual vanity, built-in bath and separate walk-in shower. One guest bedroom mirrors the home’s sense of light, with its own en suite complete with a skylit rainfall shower. The final guest bedroom, fitted with a run of integrated storage, is served by a smart family bathroom.
