The Gateways, Chelsea, London

The Gateways is an exclusive residential estate nestled in the upmarket, leafy streets of Chelsea, just minutes away from the bustle of Kings Road. The brief for this project was to renovate, rejuvenate and redesign; breathing new life and light into a stunning Grade II listed three-bedroom property, while still preserving its character and charm.

Throughout the development, DKBS worked closely alongside both the client and their architects to ensure the project delivered on all requirements, as well as reflect the client’s lifestyle and personal taste. This included incorporating a seamless blend of old and new, with the complex preservation of beautiful original features, such as the wood flooring, cornicing and staircase and the projecting bay windows. New additions to the property came in the form of beautiful bespoke joinery, including a stylish new kitchen and dining room, and a remodelled utility room – all successfully completed within the constraints of listed building consent.
