Racing Silks: London

Situated on a pretty street just off the bustling King's Road, this home is in an excellent spot for enjoying the upscale offerings of Chelsea. You're just a short walk from great shopping, cafes and world-class restaurants, and South Kensington's famous museums are only fifteen minutes on foot. Sloane Square station is a seven-minute walk, so exploring the rest of London is a breeze. This home is located within a gated community, which is ideal for those wanting extra security and privacy, and with it comes plenty of peace and quiet. Inside, it feels quintessentially English but with a modern twist. The feature fireplace takes centre stage in the living area – perfect for curling up with a mug of tea on chilly evenings – and the outdoor patio is a real treat. When the weather allows it, begin your day out there, sipping coffee and munching on breakfast. There's also plenty of space here for socialising, making it a wonderful option for a large family or group of friends in town to see the sights.

Home truths:
* Set over four floors, this home has several flights of stairs
* While there are four bathrooms, only one has a shower
* There's a TV in the living room, although the layout of the space is more conducive for socialising
* The patio and rooftop terrace are currently not set up for use in the winter
* The style of the home is classic and traditional, which may not suit those looking for a more contemporary space
