When it comes to London living, nothing beats owning a striking period mansion that is impressive from the outside and sleekly modern and contemporary inside. This glorious residence, in the sought-after area of St John’s Wood, delivers on both counts and will wow with its potential.
This double-fronted property offers 6,332 sq ft of living space across multiple floors, sitting behind security gates and beyond a driveway with parking for ten cars.
The house has two floors dedicated to entertaining space, with a flexible suite of rooms: six reception rooms as well as vast open-plan living spaces. The kitchen is sleek and modern, fitted with all the latest conveniences for the home chef and accompanied by a walk-in pantry as well as a utility room.
The open-plan spaces are ideal for large groups, with people able to choose between the dining area or the more casual sofas and chairs. Having multiple open-plan spaces makes this house suitable for a family, who may prefer to entertain separately.
There are dining areas a-plenty within the house, with a more formal dining room that could suit a different style of party and be ideal for special occasions and guests.
There is also a generous study to cater for those working from home and serve as a library, while the cinema room is going to be the draw after the work is done. All interiors are modernised and elegant in their simplicity and style.
Upon climbing the stairs, the bedroom selection is dominated by a glorious principal bedroom suite, before seven further bedrooms can cater for the rest of the household.
There are six bathrooms to serve the multiple occupants, all of which are finished to the highest standard and incredibly eye-catching in their chic finish.
Considering the size of this mansion, the internal passenger lift may come in handy, while a number of well-positioned balconies provide some rooms with a joyous slice of the outdoors. For a more committed experience of the gorgeous grounds, there are multiple areas around the immediate property that have been designed as outdoor dining or lounging spaces.
It’s worth noting that detailed planning consent has been obtained and implemented to increase the property to 1,503.54 sqm/16,183.18 sq ft. There’s no time limit on the build, so it could be food for thought. What might you do with this impressively-large house…?
There is also a gym within the existing house, which is a beautiful and very convenient amenity to have at home if you don’t feel like taking your morning run in one of the nearby parks (but both Regent’s Park and Primrose Hill are very close).
The area is, generally, a superb place to base a London life. St John’s Wood is a charming residential area and has gained a positive reputation for its local amenities and proximity to the bustle of Central London. Two of the main local attractions can attract a crowd – the Abbey Road Studios and Lords Cricket Ground – and the house is just a 10 minute walk from St John’s Wood Underground Station and Swiss Cottage Underground Station (Jubilee Line), both of which provide rapid access to the rest of the city.
