Red Anchor Close is a private, gated mews-style development in one of the oldest and most characterful parts of Chelsea. Set just off Old Church Street, the close is approached through an entrance beneath a building and forms a quiet, part-paved cul-de-sac above the River Thames. Although the development itself is relatively modern, its surroundings have a rich history. Old Church Street dates back to the 16th century, when it was known as Church Lane, and the area also has strong musical associations, with the former Sound Techniques recording studios on the street having hosted artists including Pink Floyd during the 1960s.

Primarily residential in character, Red Anchor Close offers a peaceful setting while remaining close to some of Chelsea’s best-known destinations. The King’s Road, with its wide selection of shops, restaurants and cafés, is within easy walking distance, while Chelsea Embankment and the River Thames provide attractive riverside walks nearby. The Chelsea Arts Club is also close by, adding to the area’s distinctive cultural character. With its discreet gated entrance, quiet mews-style setting and enviable position close to Old Church Street, Chelsea Embankment and the King’s Road, Red Anchor Close offers a particularly secluded residential address in central Chelsea.
