With a meticulous level of finish throughout, this outstanding apartment forms part of Empire House, a sought-after portered block on North Terrace, ideally located moments from South Kensington and Knightsbridge.
Empire House stands as an iconic structure, constructed between 1909 and 1916, originally serving as the headquarters for the Continental Tyre & Rubber Company. Positioned at the intersection of Brompton Road and Thurloe Place, it boasts a prominent view of the Victoria and Albert Museum.
This building has consistently attracted a devoted following due to its close proximity to local transportation facilities such as, South Kensington Underground (Picadilly, District and Circle lines) just 0.2 miles away and Knightsbridge Underground (Picadilly line) 0.5 miles away.
