Behind a deep front garden on one of St John’s Wood’s most recognisable addresses, this remarkable Grade II listed house unfolds across more than 4,000 sq ft, combining striking period architecture with a series of beautifully considered contemporary additions. The house also benefits from rare off-street parking.
Arranged across five floors, the house has an unusual sense of privacy for central London. Its layout balances elegant formal rooms with more relaxed family spaces, while expansive glazing and multiple terraces create a strong connection to the gardens beyond. Original detailing has been carefully preserved throughout, from high ceilings and fireplaces to large sash windows that draw natural light deep into the interiors.
The ground floor is centred around a generous dining room and adjoining reception space, with a separate front reception room offering a quieter setting overlooking the garden.
To the rear, on the lower ground floor, a dramatic contemporary extension introduces a more informal living area and bespoke kitchen, where minimalist cabinetry, stone surfaces and integrated appliances sit beneath wide skylights and floor-to-ceiling glazing. Doors open directly onto the landscaped garden, creating a wonderful flow between inside and out during the warmer months. A conservatory, also opening onto the garden, completes this level.
The basement has been conceived as a flexible multi-purpose leisure and entertaining space, currently arranged to include a cinema area, wine storage and additional reception space. Elsewhere, practical spaces including storage and utility areas have been carefully integrated throughout the house.
The principal bedroom suite occupies much of the first floor and includes a large dressing area and an expansive ensuite bathroom. One further bedroom or study is arranged on this level alongside a sauna, while the top floor provides an additional bedroom suite with a walk-in wardrobe and a private roof terrace with far-reaching views.
Outside, the house reveals one of its defining features: a substantial private garden with an outdoor swimming pool framed by mature planting and multiple terraces for dining and entertaining. The setting feels unexpectedly secluded, with established trees creating a rare sense of enclosure, while the deep frontage also allows for valuable off-street parking.
Abbey Road remains one of northwest London’s most enduring residential addresses, moments from the boutiques, cafés and restaurants of St John’s Wood High Street and within easy reach of Regent’s Park. Excellent transport connections are nearby, while the area is known for its village-like atmosphere, broad tree-lined streets and distinguished collection of period architecture.
