Kensington sits north of Chelsea, across the museums and the park. Many of the houses were built for one family and later split into flats.
Stucco terraces are the usual stock, tall and white, often around a communal garden. A lower ground floor is common, and a basement below that.
Kensington sits inside the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. Its basement policy, CD11, applies here too. One storey only, and no more than half the garden. Source: RBKC Local Plan 2024, read on 7 October 2026.
We work floor by floor here, from a single flat to a whole house. A detailed budget estimate is usually with you within seven days.
