A grand apartment where period architecture and serious contemporary design share equal billing. The reception room alone – with its bronze chandeliers, a fireplace framed by antiqued mirrors and floor-to-ceiling windows opening directly onto a landscaped private garden – sets a high bar, and the rest of the home meets it. Below, a private cinema, sauna, steam room, and gym mean you never have to leave. When you do, Hyde Park, Mayfair, and Marylebone are all within walking distance, with Buckingham Palace reachable in less than half an hour on foot.
