Coleherne Court is a traditional Edwardian mansion block, built between 1901 1904 on the site of Coleherne House and Hereford House (demolished circa 1899). The complex was constructed in red brick and Portland stone and is decorated with motifs to soften the imposing style of the architecture. The block is located between The Little Boltons, Old Brompton Road and Redcliffe Gardens and forms part of the prestigious Bolton's Conservation Area, designated in the year 2000. Hidden behind iron gates lies a very large and beautifully kept private communal garden, of which all residents have the right to use and enjoy. These gardens are truly magical and great care goes into their upkeep and maintenance.
Of further note, Lady Diana Spencer (later the Princess of Wales) once resided within the building, specifically in Flat 60 from 1979-1981, prior to her marriage to Charles. An English Heritage Blue Plaque was erected to commemorate this remarkable association.
The building is conveniently located for the numerous amenities found along the Old Brompton Road, Earls Court Road and Gloucester Road, such as traditional pubs, shops, and restaurants. Local transport links are excellent with Earls Court Underground Station, West Brompton Over/Underground Station and Gloucester Road Underground Station all nearby.
