Acquired from The Crown, this elegant Nash-designed townhouse forms part of a substantial stucco-fronted terrace in St James's, which are the closest private homes to Buckingham Palace. This 19,000 sq ft, Grade II listed house was formerly home to the British Secret Service.
The consummate restoration involved restoring numerous original architectural details. The house was also thoroughly modernised, which included the addition of a subterranean pool and spa designed in a contrasting, contemporary aesthetic.
