Vetted by our experts
Once owned by Jane Austen's brother Henry, this elegant townhouse made an appearance in her famous novel "Sense and Sensibility". Designed with phenomenal attention to detail, it’s an imaginative and glamorous re-interpretation of a Regency home, inspired by what’s known about Henry and Eliza’s life in this house. Think sumptuous plum velvet drapes, crystal chandeliers and unique antiques sourced from around the world. When you’re done admiring all the stunning details (if that’s even possible), we recommend you read the selection of newspapers while you savour a glass of Bollinger Champagne in the sitting room or try one of the luxury teas – both are courtesy of your lovely host (they also provide a daily breakfast). In the evening, why...
We promise expert-vetted homes, total transparency and exceptional service.
