A breathtaking one-bedroom Art Deco-style apartment in the heart of Chelsea, London, is on the market for £975,000.
Chesil Court is an iconic modernist building block located at the bottom of Chelsea Manor Street. Just moments from buzzy King's Road, it's an exceptionally luxe collection of private flats right in the heart of the city — and one is now for sale.
This remarkable first-floor property, which formerly belonged to the British actor, Harry Fowler, has a creative energy about it. It might only have one bedroom and one bathroom, but it is certainly spacious enough for a London-loving couple to move in right away. Thanks to a recent renovation project, this apartment has characterful colour-popping rooms and intriguing features.
The real head-turner here is the high-drama wallpaper in the bedroom. In a rich rainforest green, it's a Madeleine Castaing print from the 1930s and also provided inspiration for the peacock-blue curtains and leopard print carpet. Whether you're a fan of clashing prints or not, we're certain everyone will fall in love with this space.
The industrial-chic kitchen might be the smallest part of the whole home (in fact, it's just 11'6" x 5'3" in size) but it's still as lovely as all of the other rooms. Here, there are Insta-worthy dark navy cabinets, a double oven, vibrant Moroccan-inspired tiles and just the right amount of cupboards for your pots and pans.
Elsewhere inside the apartment, you'll also discover an iron bath in the bathroom, roaring fireplace in the reception room, high ceilings and a practical bench dining area, too.
Head outside and you'll find a quaint tucked-away balcony. This south-facing space has views over the communal gardens and is just big enough for a sun lounger or small bistro dining set. It might be compact and smart, but you'll be grateful for this sun trap once the warm weather arrives.
This property is on the market for £975,000 via Strutt & Parker.

New home gifts: 20 really good housewarming gift ideas
This is a bestseller for a reason. This lovely gift set from The White Company includes the Seychelles signature candle, room spray and diffuser for a home that will smell truly delightful. This scent combines notes of evocative bergamot, bright orange and fresh coconut, with a hint of green jasmine, warming amber and buttery vanilla. Divine!
If you're looking for a practical housewarming gift, you can't go wrong with Smeg. If your recipient has a penchant for sky blue shades (and getting hands-on in the kitchen), then snap up this fabulous blender set for endless uses.
This antique-style candle holder is a brilliant gift for the person who appreciates a good tablescape. They can use it to dress their dinner table or simply style on a sideboard. It's handmade and crafted from high quality chromed steel with a brass finish, which gives it that antique look. Don't forget to buy some taper candles so they can set the scene right away!
This stainless steel map location key holder displays the location of a new home, the address and chosen names. It's a great idea that not only pays homage to a new neighbourhood, but keeps keys safe and in one place!
Is it a vase? Is it a book? This rather beautiful ceramic vase, shaped like a hardback book, is perfect for displaying dried flowers. Decorated like a classic novel with pretty floral details, this would ideally look at home on a bookshelf or mantel.
Championing consciously designed interiors, Nkuku is one of our favourites for quality, crafted pieces that will stand the test of time. A perfect new home gift, this decanter made from recycled glass has a lovely etched detailing on the base. If you've got a generous budget, buy the set of four tumblers to match.
Peonies are fleeting beauties and this lovely coffee table book captures this beloved flower in abundance. Not just for show, inside you'll find photos of blooming peonies alongside fascinating botanical knowledge and an overview of the plant's cultural history by author Anja Klaffenbach. The book series includes succulents, roses, orchids and lilies, so the whole (rather colourful) set would make a lovely housewarming gift for green-fingered types.
This one's a kitchen must-have. Other than chopping up vegetables for dinner, this round acacia wood board is a rustic way to serve up canapés and other tasty treats. Carved by hand in India, it's shaped and chiselled using traditional woodworking techniques.
Buying a housewarming gift for a new plant parent? You can't go wrong with an unkillable bundle. The set includes the cast iron plant, robusta rubber plant and the snake plant.
Make every coffee break a bright one with this cup and saucer set, just like those used across all the Grind cafés. We love the rich red glossy glaze and contrasting white trim on the plate and inner cup. You can choose from espresso (80ml), flat white (180ml) and cappuccino (200ml).
Organisation is key when creating a streamlined home, so we think this Kate Spade letter tray would make the perfect gift. It can be positioned on a console table or desk to collate letters and ensure everything remains in one place.
Even for those who prefer a neutral, pared-back home, the kitchen is an ideal space to introduce colour. We love these vibrant salt and pepper grinders by Alessi (sold separately) that will perfectly transition from a kitchen worktop to a dining table.
Another kitchen essential, budding or keen cooks will no doubt appreciate the viral Always Pan. No meal is off-limits with this colourful duo.
A kitchen staple, you can never have too many tea towels in our opinion. We've added these to the list because any style-conscious lover will appreciate the beauty of William Morris prints!
These glazed pastel stacking heart bowls are simply beautiful. Painted with reactive glazes, each has a distinctive finish which makes it all the more unique.

This is a brilliant personalised new home gift for cheese lovers. Sure to take pride of place in the kitchen, it can be personalised with a name of your choosing. It's cleverly designed too, with a hidden compartment containing a set of cheese knives.
There are some items that will always have a place in the home, and a versatile bowl is one of them. This one is made from intricately woven black seagrass and finished with a criss cross decorative pattern.
