Chester Street | London, England

Beautiful Grade II listed house in Belgravia. The house is defined by a perfect blend of period detail and contemporary interventions. Built in 1837, original dogtooth cornicing has been restored throughout and floor-to-ceiling sash windows have been retained. These beautiful details are offset by modern features, including mid-century lighting, a lift and underground parking for a truly exceptional result.

Spanning six floors, the house unfolds over approximately 5,790 sq. ft, including a south-facing conservatory, garden terrace, cinema room, gym, and staff quarters. The ground floor features a bright entrance hall and a formal dining room with a Chinese lacquered back wall.

The kitchen and family dining room, crafted from natural oak and marble, serves as the heart of the home and leads to a secret south-facing garden. The drawing room on the first floor is characterized by its impressive Victorian features, while the library and study are both wonderful places for retreat and quiet contemplation.

The master suite on the second floor includes a spacious bedroom, dressing room, and a luxurious bathroom. Guest suites on the third floor are equally as comfortable. On the top floor are two bedrooms and a shared bathroom. The house also boasts a two-car garage and a wine cellar.

Belgravia is known for its pretty architecture and lovely tree-lined streets. The area's grand townhouses are defined by their timeless elegance, while garden squares provide a sense of tranquility amidst the bustling city. Belgravia's exclusive boutiques, restaurants, and artisanal markets cater to refined tastes. Excellent transport links means the house is well connected to the rest of London.
