Grade II* listed five-storey Georgian house with a south-facing garden on a historic street near the Houses of Parliament.

Entering the house on the ground floor, the corridor opens onto a generous open-plan kitchen, with an eating area at the front and a rear balcony overlooking the garden.

Downstairs, on the lower ground floor, is a spacious bedroom with inbuilt storage. This floor also contains separate access to the street, a guest loo, and a study with French windows leading out to the garden.

Upstairs, on the first floor, is a grand reception occupying the entire level, with inbuilt shelving and cupboards. Upstairs again, on the second floor, is a principal bedroom with ensuite bathroom, again occupying the entire level. Finally, on the third floor, two more bedrooms share a bathroom.

The house is decorated in a traditional and tasteful fashion, with elegant fireplaces and panelled doors to evoke its three centuries of history.

The house includes a paved garden, with space enough for outdoor eating. The garden ends with a private parking place, as well as small workshop with a back door, allowing access to nearby Great Peter Street. In addition, at the front of the house, a pair of vaults under the street allow for cellar-like storage.

The house was built in 1722, part of a neighbourhood of well-preserved Georgian houses. The celebrated actor, Sir John Gielgud lived next door, and the area was historically popular with politicians and aristocrats. The Houses of Parliament are within walking distance, as well as Westminster Abbey, the concert space of St John Smith’s Square, and the riverside lawns of Victoria Tower Gardens.
