Occupying a corner plot on one of St John’s Wood’s most desirable streets, this newly renovated six-bedroom detached house combines original Victorian and Georgian exterior character with a comprehensive, contemporary rebuild. At approximately 6,191 sq ft, the property offers generous, light-filled living spaces, soaring ceilings and high-spec finishes throughout — arranged for comfortable family life and formal entertaining.
The house was rebuilt over four years by a noted architect and sits behind a restored historic façade and new boundary wall. Double-paned sash-style windows, limestone detailing and a landscaped wraparound garden create a private, elegant setting. Interior rooms flow well for daily use and social occasions; there is also a versatile garage/summer house and secure off-street parking for up to three cars.
Accommodation is arranged over multiple levels with five bedrooms and five bathrooms on the upper floors and a sixth bedroom with walk-in wardrobe on the lower-ground level — suitable for family, guests or staff. Local amenities, excellent independent and state schools, and green spaces including Regent’s Park and Primrose Hill are all within easy walking distance.
Important practical notes: the property is a full freehold period rebuild (pre-1900 original construction) and has solid brick walls which are recorded as having no built-in insulation (assumed). Double glazing is present but the install date is unspecified. These factors are worth considering for long-term running costs and any further energy-efficiency upgrades buyers may wish to make. Crime is reported as average for the area and there is no flood risk.
