Description:
Quietly positioned in the heart of Prime Chelsea, The Court House is a rare and remarkable historic freehold residence offering exceptional scale, architectural character, and privacy within one of London’s most prestigious neighbourhoods.
Originally constructed in the 18th century, the property formerly served as Old Chelsea’s local courthouse. Today, following a meticulous and sympathetic refurbishment, it stands as a refined private residence where contemporary comfort is seamlessly integrated with carefully preserved period features. Among the most notable original elements are the restored stained-glass windows, which contribute to the property’s unique identity and sense of heritage.
The main reception spaces are defined by dramatic volume and light. A magnificent double reception room with approximately 12 metres of width and soaring ceilings of around 20 feet creates an immediate impression of grandeur. Large Victorian windows, a traditional fireplace, and direct access to a private patio make this space ideal for both elegant entertaining and refined daily living.
The lower ground floor accommodates a grand dining hall, a fully appointed kitchen, a study, an ensuite bedroom, a guest powder room, and a utility room. This level also opens onto a generous patio garden, providing a secluded outdoor setting well suited for entertaining.
The first floor comprises three well-proportioned bedrooms, two of which benefit from ensuite bathrooms. The entire second floor is dedicated to an expansive principal suite, offering substantial wardrobe space and two ensuite bathrooms, creating a private and luxurious retreat.
Despite its tranquil and secluded setting, the residence is moments from Chelsea’s world-class amenities, restaurants, boutiques, and cultural landmarks, including the renowned Chelsea Physic Garden.
