Riverstone Kensington

Spear’s Review

Riverstone Kensington is an award-winning residence for over-65s located in one of London’s most sought-after neighbourhoods.

Situated just moments away from Kensington High Street, the facility comprises a number of elegant one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments available to buy or rent. The complex also has a range of luxurious amenities, including a spa, cinema room, library, bar and restaurant, as well as 24-hour concierge service. 

As Dame Joanna Lumley remarked at the opening event: ‘I feel sorry for those of you who aren’t yet 65. Coming in through these doors, meeting the people and going around, it seems they have thought of everything we long for.’

Riverstone works in conjunction with The Good Care Group, and its on-site team is able to provide first-rate healthcare assistance when required. This could involve arranging a private GP appointment or organising more long-term support, such as bespoke live-in care. 

Financially backed by Goldman Sachs, Riverstone Kensington is not a ‘care home’ in the traditional sense but a high-end, lifestyle-focused later-living community designed to feel more like a private members’ club.
