Glebe Place, Chelsea, London, SW3
Nestled in the heart of Old Chelsea, this is a very special artist's studio, now arranged as a three bedroom property of exceptional volume with an abundance of natural (north) light.
Retaining the historic link with the art world, the house now lends itself to enjoying an art collection, with room to display and enjoy larger pieces with ease.
At the heart of the home is the spectacular reception room, where ceilings rise to an impressive 7.5 metres, creating a dramatic sense of space. Flooded with natural light from expansive studio style windows, this is the perfect setting for entertaining on a grand scale or showcasing an art collection. To the rear of the ground floor is a substantial study area, ideal for home working or creative pursuits, and this leads through to the guest bedroom and bathroom beyond. Upstairs, the two elegant bedroom suites to the frontand rear are linked by a gallery which runs above the studio reception. Both suites enjoy wonderful proportions, excellent natural light, and generous ceiling heights. The larger of these suites has fine views south down Cheyne Row and across to the renowned Glebe development. The second has the appeal of a spacious and private roof terrace.
Situated between the King's Road and the river, the house will appeal to a discrete buyer, wishing to make a home in the heart of Old Chelsea, yet with easy access to all that London has to offer.
Historical note: Alexander Stuart-Hill had his studio here between the wars, when it became a lively part of Chelsea’s Bohemian and Artist social scene, with notable visitors reputed to include Evelyn Waugh, Florence Mills and Turner Layton.
