Alongside the homes' green credentials, urban luxuries have crept in, including a double reception room and kitchen-breakfast area both leading onto private terraces; a cinema/media room with a wet bar; wine cellar; and off-street parking with a secure garage. The houses range in size from just over 3,500-square feet to 3,700-square feet and from £5.4 to £5.6 million. Selling agent Richard Gutteridge from Knight Frank's Sloane Avenue office (www.knightfrank.com) says, 'The houses' green features are an added benefit on top of very high quality building specifications from the developers Morpheus on behalf of the Princedale Partnership. 'These are classic useable homes with modern exteriors and all the gadgets buyers require these days, like air conditioning, wooden flooring, under-floor heating and good garaging.' The homes are enhanced by their location as well, adds Mr Gutteridge - in a quiet backwater of South Kensington and only a five-minute walk from Gloucester Road Tube.'

Country Life

Country Life is unlike any other magazine: the only glossy weekly on the newsstand and the only magazine that has been guest-edited by HRH The King not once, but twice. It is a celebration of modern rural life and all its diverse joys and pleasures — that was first published in Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee year. Our eclectic mixture of witty and informative content — from the most up-to-date property news and commentary and a coveted glimpse inside some of the UK's best houses and gardens, to gardening, the arts and interior design, written by experts in their field — still cannot be found in print or online, anywhere else.
