  This spectacular property combines complete privacy and large spaces. It spans five Victorian artist's studios built in 1891, which were used by artists such as Augustus John, Sir William Rothenstein, Winifred Nicholson and photographer Baron de Meyer, amongst others. This incredible and unique house is sumptuously designed with a distinctly Moroccan feel in the entertaining areas. Triple height ceilings contrast with the intimate and secluded parts of the house. With spacious reception rooms perfect for entertaining. In addition there is a self-contained maisonette on two floors in Oakley Street, which is accessed through the garden. Glebe Place is situated in the heart of Chelsea, just off the King's Road with all its excellent shops, restaurants and two cinemas within walking distance. Over the last 30 years, the current owners have nurtured an incredible award-winning roof garden which spans approximately 120 feet, with four ornamental minarets. These are replicas of the originals from Brighton Pavilion, that were cast by the museum, following their arson attempt in 1968. When the restored originals were replaced in 1983, these replicas were bought from the museum by the current owners. The garden has a superb BBQ with the convenience of a dumb-waiter from the kitchen. The roof garden, with its 3,000 pots, adds a second floor to this amazing conglomeration of artist's studios. The main house features two reception rooms, three guest cloakrooms, a kitchen/breakfast room as well as a kitchenette. There are two double bedrooms, two dressing rooms and two bathrooms. There is also an air-conditioned wine cellar, laundry room and substantial roof garden. The garden has an octagonal greenhouse. The maisonette features a reception room, office, staff room and kitchen. There are two bedrooms, a shower room and two guest cloakrooms.
