Unveiled to the public for the first time in 150 years, Chelsea Barracks has been transformed from a dilapidated British Army barracks into a coveted residential neighbourhood boasting a holistic lifestyle.
Developed by Qatari Diar Europe, the sprawling 12.8-acre historic site is now home to a collection of apartments, townhouses, penthouses and mews houses, as well as The Garrison Club – a state-of-the-art amenity offering that includes a 12,700sqft private spa, a 20-metre swimming pool, a tepidarium, a cinema and more, with 24-hour concierge service for residents.

While paying tribute to the site’s military heritage with a palette of blues inspired by the Chelsea Pensioners’ navy-blue undress uniforms, the property also features exquisite detailing, such as a sophisticated ivory canvas dotted with accents of gold that exudes a sense of timeless elegance, as well as bespoke joinery taking its cue from the nearby Chelsea Bridge.
