London’s most expensive flatshare boasting chandeliers, a dining hall and gym is being advertised online to rent for more than £21,000 a month.

The three bedroom apartment, located in Hyde Park Gate, will set back each tenant £1,783 a week and is 10 times more expensive than the average flatshare in the capital.

The 3,500 sq ft Victorian property will appeal to those seeking a bit of luxury with a daily clean and linen service, 12 seat dining hall, Sky TV and en-suite bathrooms all included in the price.

Renters will also be able to take advantage of the fully equipped gym, balconies overlooking Hyde Park and roof terraces.

A description on spareroom.co.uk said: “Looking out across the leafy expanses of Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park, these grand private residences were built to accommodate London’s elite. It’s a theme that continues to this day.

“These historic residences feature floor-to-ceiling sash windows, original fireplaces and neo-Palladian columns, while our more modern apartments include vibrant furnishings, split-terraces and spacious roof terraces.”

Matt Hutchinson, director of the Spareroom, said the advert is the most expensive listing the flatshare site has ever had.

He told the Sunday Times: “It’s widely thought that housing costs should be no more than a third of your income, so with an annual rent of £92,716, tenants would need to be taking home over £500,000 before tax.”

Anyone who wishes to take up a room in the apartment must undergo an interview process.
