About this property

Chelsea Artist's Studio, by Veeve

Formerly an artist’s studio, this alluring three-bedroom Chelsea home feels akin to stepping into your own viewing gallery. Vibrant, open plan and teeming with arresting visuals, this unique hideaway is situated moments from the Kings Road and the museums of South Kensington...

Captivating in its unapologetically artistic aesthetic, the ground floor of this property is a testament to creative imagination with its array of fascinating wall art and prints paying homage to popular culture. Velvet sofas, colourful soft furnishings and vintage rugs bring further pops of colour into this eye-catching room, whilst a designer coffee table and hanging bubble chair bring a dash of contemporary cool. There’s even room for a pinch of vintage charm with the characterful wood dining table offering space for six guests. Ambient multi-colour lighting adds to the eclectic vibe in the sleek modern kitchen.

Cosy and restful with its sloped walls and soothing accents of sage green, the principal bedroom presents a double bed, vintage chest of drawers and en-suite bathroom with walk-in shower. Fan of the King? Elvis is most certainly in the building in the second bedroom with the music icon’s portrait the focal point of a relaxing room hosting a double bed. Offering two single beds that can be deployed as a double, the final bedroom is serenely styled in neutral tones. Hosting a bath and walk-in shower, the family bathroom is chic and contemporary with designer fittings and a soulful skylight. Finally, once you’ve had time to catch your breath after exploring this home’s captivating canvas, relax at leisure in a private patio area with outdoor seating.

We Love
The fluency with which this soulful home embraces the old adage ‘art is life’...

unprofessional, owners cancelled on us 5 days before stay
We paid in full 7 months in advance, signing a 4 page leasing contract through property management company Veeve. Got a phone call 5 days before our week long rental was to start, informing us the owner needed to stay in their London appartment for personal reasons so our rental was cancelled. I was not happy, but asked what they had for us instead. They said they would send me some choices the next day. Two days later ( 3 days before we are to arrive in London) I receive an email of three choices. None are air conditioned (a high priority for why we booked the first apartment) and they are definitely lower in quality. Only 2 bedrooms each ( we had rented a 3 bedroom.) When they called to follow up, I said none had air conditioning, which was a requirement for us. They explained that with such late notice, and how London is so crowded with the World Cup, Hyde Park Concert series, and Wimbledon, it was difficult to get anything at all in London. But they would happily refund our full payment. They offered to put one portable air conditioning unit in one bedroom, and a fan in the other. Didn’t have a 3 bedroom unit available. It was a nightmare. Four women coming to London to celebrate a 60th birthday, wanting a lovely 3 bedroom apartment so we could spend evenings together in the living room chatting. After looking for hours and hours for an apartment, I settled on a hotel. I emailed Veeve, explained this was costing us much more than our original plan, because I was booking the hotel the day before arrival. After emailing several more times, I finally got a refund of our money paid to them, but nothing to compensate for our additional expenditure, a couple thousand dollars more. How possibly could this owner, and this rental property management company, have cancelled our fully paid apartment on 5 days notice, and not provided us with a comparable substitute. We had to spend double the money for lesser hotel rooms, and had no living room or kitchen... Be forewarned with this owner and this rental management company.

Professional and friendly service
The apartment is absolutely lovely, and Veeve was responsive and professional. One exception -- we asked for a second set of keys and did not receive them. But, it's not a major issue.

Why they chose this property

Once a synonym for bohemian living in the city, those who occupy its charming squares and townhouses live a rather more comfortable lifestyle now. (Almost) long gone too are the days of the ‘Sloane Ranger’, a particular type of upper-middle-class Londoner who once roved the streets around Chelsea and Sloane Square — what does remain is a multitude of high-end fashion boutiques and eateries along the King’s Road; a must-visit for all fashion-lovers.
