Auriens Chelsea lies steps from Kings Road, which is still one of the most exciting places to shop, drink and dine in London. Historically home to actors, artists, and writers Chelsea is the location for events such as the Chelsea Flower Show and cultural institutions such as Cadogan Hall and the Saatchi Gallery.
Auriens Chelsea’s 56 apartments are available to lease and are priced from £13,750 per calendar month for a one-bedroom apartment and from £16,500 per calendar month for a two-bedroom apartment.
The monthly charge includes rent and most of the annual costs associated with homeownership such as electricity, heating, water, broadband, TV and telephone package, council tax, buildings insurance, and TV licence.
The Auriens lease has been carefully designed to offer security of tenure whilst allowing complete flexibility. The lease includes a three-month notice period and avoids costs associated with purchasing property such as a deferred payment.
The on-site team are able to take care of the stresses of household administration and day-to-day maintenance leaving you free to enjoy the exceptional amenities and services.
Peace of mind. The Auriens lease provides complete security, with the right to stay living at Auriens for as long as you desire and a guaranteed right to renew each year. However, should your circumstances change, you can choose to terminate your tenancy at any time with three months’ notice.
Everything taken care of. At Auriens, all the maintenance costs and administrative tasks associated with home ownership are removed and instead expertly managed by the on-site team. Utilities will be administered by our in-house accountant and any maintenance matters promptly addressed by the on-site engineer and relevant professionals.
Looking to the future. For those who require it, we provide an exceptional level of care at extremely competitive prices. Our permanent care team on site allows us to provide a more cost-effective and more efficient solution than arranging domiciliary care in your own home. Rather than a standard monthly charge, the level of care and the associated costs are tailored to your individual requirements as they change over the years.
A new chapter. Leasing removes some of the burdens compared to purchasing in later life. Auriens also does not charge a deferred payment at the end of tenancy. For those selling the family home, equity can be released for gifting, investment or to simply enjoy later life; whilst for those who wish to keep their home, the rental revenue can generate a regular income.
On your doorstep. Auriens Chelsea enjoys a prime location in the heart of one of London's most vibrant areas. The shops and restaurants of the King's Road are just steps away. While cultural institutions such as Cadogan Hall and the Royal Court Theatre lie close by.

Choosing a floor plan might be tricky, but it shouldn't be so. See 3 quick tips below to pick only the right layout for your new home.
Tip 1 — Measure it all
You might already know your desired square footage when choosing a new home. Generally, more bedrooms mean more space, which also drives up the prices.
However, modern developers offer smart floor plans so you can make better use of the space. For instance, a studio with an open floor plan can be much more efficient and affordable than a typical 1-bedroom apartment with a traditional floor plan.
Tip 2 – Go with the flow
Once you have picked one or several layouts, you need to imagine living in the space. Visualise daily activities like laundry or cooking: is it convenient? Do you have enough space?
Online interior design apps that offer 3D visualisation (many of them are free) are time-savers here. Just download the desired floor plan from 1newhomes, upload it to the website you chose, and get a 3D render to visualise living in your new home.
Tip 3 — Do not neglect flexible space
The current lifestyle dictates its own rules. That’s why you need to consider flexible space in your perfect floor plan to have room for a home office or a gym. In addition, be sure to check that your new flat has a lot of natural light. The importance of the latter goes without saying.
A good floor plan means having all you need in a smartly designed space. We are sure our quick tips help you pick only the perfect layout for your new home.
