Key features and description

This exceptional freehold house, a former historic coaching inn, offers over 5,200 sq ft of lateral living across four generous floors. Fully renovated in 2008, it delivers a rare combination of volume, natural light, and serene calm, truly unique in Central London.

At its heart lies an outstanding vaulted reception room: impressively scaled yet warm and understated, with American walnut flooring, abundant daylight, and a profound quiet that defines the home's atmosphere. 

Proportions are superb throughout, with a logical, spacious layout. The kitchen is a chef's dream with top-tier finishes paired with an expansive island perfect for entertaining and everyday culinary creativity.

Five well-proportioned bedrooms include a principal suite claiming the entire top floor where vaulted ceilings again create openness, and double doors frame views over the private garden below, offering a peaceful retreat.

Air conditioning adds comfort, and the property is unlisted, providing excellent flexibility for future owners, whether re-configuring spaces or adding a lift.

Outside, automatic gates reveal secure off-street parking for two cars, leading to a superb south-facing garden: a secluded oasis ideal for entertaining or quiet relaxation.

Rich in charm and history, bathed in natural light, and exuding rare tranquillity, the house sits opposite The Frontline Club, a prestigious private members' club renowned for its deep ties to independent journalism. Paddington station (just moments away) offers a swift 15-minute train to Heathrow, making this an ideal London pied-a-terre. Hyde Park's 350 acres of greenery are a short stroll.

A quietly exceptional home offering scale, flexibility and atmosphere in equal measure.
