Positioned between Chelsea and Knightsbridge, South Kensington is home to some of London's highly celebrated institutions, including the Victoria and Albert Museum, the Natural History Museum and the Royal Albert Hall. Beyond these iconic landmarks, charming streets lined with white stucco-fronted buildings, hidden garden squares and bustling cafés create a distinctly glamorous atmosphere within this affluent district.
South Kensington is a magnet for the international elite, not least because of its exceptional educational facilities. The Lycée Français Charles de Gaulle has fostered a strong French presence here. Residing here means being surrounded by stately Victorian terraces to the more secluded mews houses hidden down cobblestone streets. Many of these grand homes have been transformed into luxury apartments with modern conveniences while maintaining their historical charm. Garden squares, such as Onslow Square and Thurloe Square, offer peaceful green spaces on your doorstep.
South Kensington Station sits on the District, Circle and Piccadilly Lines, meaning you can be in the City, Canary Wharf or the West End within minutes. Heathrow is a straightforward journey away via the Piccadilly Line and Paddington Station's Heathrow Express offers a quick route to the airport.
For those seeking an expert property agent in this prestigious neighbourhood, Benham & Reeves is here to help.

Where do you currently live? I’m currently living in Battersea, moments from the park.
What do you like most about working in the Kensington area? Like most people who love living in the area, I particularly appreciate the architecture where Georgian villas and Victorian townhouses sit alongside striking mansion blocks and quaint mews. There are also some elegant new-builds and the area is well supported by every conceivable amenity, so it continues to retain its elite status as one of the best addresses in London.
Tell me a little about your property career and interest in it I've worked in the property industry for other top agents for 15 years managing the letting of prime properties in St John's Wood and Hampstead and central London. Every day is different and I really enjoy helping tenants discover the best of what the area has to offer and provide a great service to everyone.
What are your passions outside work and how do you relax? I like keeping fit and have recently taken up running. I'm also into hiking and currently planning my next adventure.

Which is your favourite part of London? London is the city I’ve called home for the past 10 years and there are many lovely areas, but one of my favourites is Southbank. Here you are surrounded by London’s rich architectural history demonstrated beautifully by Tower Bridge and the fantastic River views you get from Blackfriars Bridge which is like no other.
Tell me a little about your property career and interest in it? I began my career studying law but soon realised it was not for me because my passion for real estate couldn’t be ignored.

Buyers and sellers seem to appreciate the personal touch and I think being a good communicator is the key to be a being good real estate agent.
What are your passions outside work and how do you relax? I really enjoy photography and I love to paint, in fact my house is full of my paintings! I also take part in regular volleyball tournaments, where I have the opportunity to keep fit whilst enjoying a bit of competition.
