On the British Monopoly board, the two most desirable and expensive spots are “Park Lane” and “Mayfair”. This stunning Mayfair penthouse duplex apartment will demonstrate exactly why it’s up there right at the top.
To begin with, the location. Mayfair is perfectly placed for you to make the most of all that London has to offer. A short stroll west will take you to the verdant oasis of Hyde Park. Heading in the other direction, you’ll reach the exclusive boutiques of Bond Street. Mayfair itself is packed with classic squares, high-end retail, innovative restaurants and drinking establishments, ranging from charming local pubs to exclusive private members’ clubs. You’re right next to Soho House’s Little House Mayfair, as well as a short stroll from Annabel’s and all the famous restaurants and nightspots on Berkeley Square.
The apartment itself is a gem. Expertly decorated throughout in a cool, contemporary grey palette, the emphasis is on maximizing both comfort and style. As it’s located on the uppermost storeys of a period building (fourth and fifth floors), it’s bright and filled with light.
Enter on the fourth floor of the building and you’ll find a spacious and well-lit reception room to your right, facing the street. Passing through, you’ll come to an ample kitchen dining area, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The kitchen is Bulthaup designed with a marble-top central island and equipped with Gaggenau appliances. Both these rooms have beautiful grey-brown parquet flooring — a quiet, elegant theme that is reflected in the rest of the apartment’s décor.
Also on this level, you’ll find a guest lavatory, as well as the principal bedroom with walk-in wardrobes and an impressive en suite featuring floor-to-ceiling grey-veined white marble, an inviting bathtub, and a luxurious rain shower. There’s also the first of three separate roof terraces and another en suite bedroom with similar marble finishes. This bedroom opens to the terrace, a perfect place to gaze out at the rooftops of the city as you sip your morning coffee.
Upstairs, there’s another living area/“morning room”, with three French windows that can be thrown open to flood the space with light and air, and allow you to step out onto a terrace with superb views. There’s a further bedroom towards the back with en suite and a private roof terrace.
All in all, a space of consummate elegance and class at the heart of a unique city. The property comes fully furnished and professionally decorated.
