Templeton

The Templeton is a gorgeous two-bedroom apartment situated in a thriving neighborhood of Kensington. Make yourself at home and discover what the Templeton has to offer.

The Templeton is named for the great mansion that once was the home of Winston Churchill. Located on a private garden square, a stalwart of Victorian London design, the Templeton is surrounded by beautiful red brick terrace homes, inspired by the English and Flemish architecture of the 1700s. It is a peaceful spot with a rich history - the land having once been owned for centuries by various members of Kensington gentry. Now, it is a buzzing community with plenty of restaurants and bars to try. Just a 15-minute walk from High Street Kensington, you’ll be able to visit the new Design Museum with ease or the Leighton House Museum, a hidden gem in the area. Plus, the beautiful Brompton cemetery is only 10 minutes away on foot and well worth a visit; its grand domed chapel is based on St Peter’s Basilica in Rome.

This stylish apartment has been decorated to the highest standard, with quirky, eye-catching design choices, from the hanging bedside lamps to the beautiful crockery. The open-plan living room and kitchen is bright and airy, with the benefit of a terrace with outdoor seating – a great spot on a nice day to enjoy a refreshing drink. The kitchen is sleek and well equipped, with a dining table for those who like to cook at home. Bedroom 1 is spacious and minimal with lovely views over the garden square. Bedroom 2 has a built-in wardrobe, making the most of the space, and sumptuous dark walls. With high ceilings and heaps of style, you’ll love this London property. With the nearest underground station just around the corner, and excellent bus links, it is easy to explore the whole city from this cute and homey base.

Please note: There is no elevator and the apartment is located on the fourth floor.
