Earl’s Terrace

Earl’s Terrace is a terrace of four-storey Victorian houses with basements, slightly set back from the south side of Kensington High Street. There is a private road immediately in front of the houses and then a private garden abutting Kensington High Street.

The houses were recently renovated to an extremely high standard. Many have indoor swimming pools and there is extensive underground parking. The terrace is 24 houses long, all in identical style but extremely impressive. There are small lodges at either end of the private road. Apparently in the past, some well known spies used to live there.

The private gardens at the rear of the terrace are enormous and the rear façade has attractive terraces with wrought-iron balconies on the second floor.

See the history of Edwardes Square. Earl's Terrace was part of the overall design of the square.
