Recent success brings tally of sales to 24 in Academy Gardens.

February 21st, 2025

The entire team at Harwood Advisory are delighted, and incredibly proud, to announce the completion of our most recent sale in Academy Gardens – the Grade II listed, Neo-Georgian apartment complex in Kensington, W8.

A new record sale for Academy, it takes us over the landmark of £400 million in transactions since we launched. Achieved off-market, with no advertising or marketing, the guide price for this incredible 4,300 sq.ft property was £14.5 million.

Following a highly considered redesign and sumptuous interior refurbishment – a project that took almost 2 years, the new owner recently took keys of what we believe is a real work of art. The attention to detail on this apartment is, quite simply, exemplary.

What truly elevates this property is the majestic 1,336 sq.ft Reception Room. Originally the library of the school that first sat on this site, the ceiling height is an incredible 4.4m. The walls, now impeccably restored, have welcomed the likes of Noel Coward and Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother. The windows look out across the 40ft private Terrace to the communal Gardens beyond.

It was a real pleasure working our good friend Alex Stroud, from Stroud, Fuller, Lurot who introduced the buyer.

The tally of Academy Gardens units sold by Sami Robertson now stands at 24, which we also believe is a record in our industry.
