The Crown Estate takes every opportunity to enhance Kensington Palace Gardens as a prime place to live, whilst ensuring that it maintains its unique character.

The emphasis is on selling the leases to families who wish to live in an exclusive residential area.

The Crown Estate also focuses on its stewardship responsibilities and the conservation of the historical and architectural value of the properties, which enhance the value of the estate and the individual properties within it. We are committed to adopting best current standards in any repair and alteration work we undertake and will encourage owners of leases to do the same.

A property maintenance guide is being produced as a guide for residents of Kensington Palace Gardens in the adoption of good practice.
