Marbled Gold

Marbled Gold: London

Situated on the top floor of a Victorian townhouse, this apartment in the heart of Chelsea is mere steps from Sloane Square. Bright, open and super stylish, it brings together contemporary design (the glossy kitchen and marble bathroom) with flourishes of old-world elegance (velvet furnishings and a stunning mantlepiece) for a marriage that's hard to resist. Our favourite spot has to be the study area which has views of the quiet tree-lined streets below from the gothic-style window. You'll feel completely at home here, whether you're gathering for a delicious meal around the dining table or nodding off in the chic bedrooms. And you couldn't ask for a better spot to explore the UK's capital. Culture vultures will relish being a twenty-minute walk from Museum Row, while fashionistas will enjoy strolling down the King's Road, famous for its designer boutiques. Plus the dining options in Chelsea are some of the finest that the city has to offer, so there's something for everyone in this exclusive neighbourhood.
