5.0

Boasting one of London's most privileged postcodes, this Grade I listed home has played host to Heads of State and dignitaries since 1822. With a rich history, this spectacular townhouse retains much of its Victorian layout to this day. Think sweeping grand staircases, antique chandeliers and real fireplaces that are perfect for cosy evenings. Original features merge with sumptuous furnishings to create something that's more than a home – it's an experience. Offering picture-perfect views over the iconic Regent's Park, take a cup of tea up to the balcony to watch the world go by. If you're looking to indulge in a little R&R, you can do so from the comfort of your own space, with a gym, sauna and hot tub all to yourself. Simply stepping outside of the front door opens up a city full of possibilities, with London's main attractions all within reach either on foot or by tube. Catch a concert at St John's Smith Square, a church-turned-concert-hall offering somewhere to savour the works of Handel and Purcell, or admire the baroque architecture as you sail along the Thames on a river cruise. When darkness falls and the city lights up, there's no better way to wind down for the night than with a few homemade cocktails in your very own bar, which are best enjoyed in the Italianate garden.
