Pretty special, even by London standards. A new corner building on Chelsea's main street offers space for eleven extraordinary residential units in addition to a cinema and three retail units on the ground floor. Luxurious, absolutely on the pulse of the action and with a spectacular tower building and roof terrace - that's Essoldo House.
The eleven residential units consist of three maisonettes and eight single-storey units, between around 70 and 145 m². Luxury can be found in every detail here - whether in the solid, high-quality oak wood floors and Carrara marble in all bathrooms or the Porcelanosa kitchens, exclusively equipped with the latest generation of Miele appliances, including wine refrigerator and hot water tap.
The building technology is also state-of-the-art; all functions from air conditioning and lighting to the SONOS speakers installed everywhere and the security system are interconnected via a KNX system and can be controlled centrally. Smart home in its purest form!
The Essoldo House is controlled via a Gira X1 Smart Home Server. In addition, a Gira S1 encrypts the KNX system, thus enabling secure remote access. The switches and socket outlets of the Gira E2 Design line in stainless steel also match the high-quality elegance of the interior of a special property - truly London's finest.
