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.

The kitchen is arranged for cooking as much as entertaining, with a walk-in pantry and long sightlines into the dining area. Beside it, a separate study sits quietly at the front of the house, while two integral garages offer secure parking and practical storage. Upstairs, the first floor is arranged with easy flow in mind.

Wood Hall Estate extends across approximately 407 acres on the edge of Radlett, forming a rare private holding within the M25. Comprising a principal listed house, a wide collection of cottages and ancillary buildings, and extensive land with established infrastructure, it is an estate of a scale seldom found so close to central London. At its centre, the main house is balanced and well proportioned, thoughtfully designed to accommodate both day-to-day living and larger-scale entertaining. Reception rooms are generous in scale, with tall sash windows that draw in natural light and frame uninterrupted views across the surrounding land. Period detailing has been retained, including fireplaces and panelled elements, sitting within a more relaxed country-house setting. The principal house provides five bedrooms, with further accommodation arranged across a series of cottages and ancillary dwellings. These include a mix of two- and three-bedroom cottages alongside additional staff accommodation, offering a high degree of flexibility for multi-generational living, staff accommodation, or income-generating use. The kitchen and informal rooms are positioned to the rear with a closer relationship to the gardens, while an indoor swimming pool sits alongside the main house as a more private, self-contained element. Beyond the main house, the estate broadens considerably. A clock tower forms a focal point among a group of converted and newly created buildings, alongside an estate office that lends itself to residential, leisure or operational use, creating a setting that balances structure with openness. A number of farm buildings present further opportunities for alternative use or redevelopment, subject to the necessary consents, with clear potential for income generation across the wider estate. The land itself is a defining feature. Extending to approximately 407 acres, it offers a level of scale and privacy that is exceptionally rare within the M25. With an acreage exceeding Regent’s Park and a long-standing equestrian heritage, the estate offers exceptional scope for reinstatement. Since the equine side of the estate has been wound down, a number of former stable and barn buildings have been repurposed and are currently let, generating a significant income stream, which could be further enhanced by an incoming purchaser. Historically, the grounds also formed part of a traditional shooting estate, with potential for this to be revived. Holdings of this scale within the M25 are exceedingly rare, presenting a compelling opportunity. Despite its seclusion, the estate is well connected. Radlett station provides direct services to St Pancras International in around 25 minutes, placing both the City and the West End within easy reach. The property lies approximately 14 miles from central London, with the M25 and M1 nearby. London Luton Airport and Elstree Aerodrome are both accessible, alongside a number of private aviation facilities.

Standing behind a private gated front on one of Little Venice’s most coveted avenues, this exceptional Grade II listed villa has been entirely re-engineered for modern family life. The house unfolds across more than 7,700 sq ft, its classical proportions preserved while every layer beneath has been rebuilt to create a home of rare capability. High ceilings, deep sash windows and finely restored joinery speak to the building’s heritage, while a newly excavated leisure level introduces a discreetly luxurious counterpoint. The ground floor is arranged around a central staircase, a natural axis between two grand reception rooms. To one side, a double formal drawing room occupies the curved bay, its tall windows overlooking the front courtyard and gardens beyond. The second reception room provides a more relaxed setting facing the Regent’s Canal. The lower ground floor unfolds from here, flowing towards a family television area and onward to the dining space and conservatory. The conservatory enjoys direct access to the terrace and views across the rear garden, creating a natural connection between inside and out. Set discreetly to the side, the substantial kitchen has been designed for everyday life as much as entertaining, with generous proportions and a practical layout that supports the rhythm of family living. Below, the newly created basement is a private wellness suite more often found in a members’ club than a London home. A 15-metre swimming pool runs the length of the space, accompanied by a steam room, Jacuzzi and fully equipped gym. The scale is generous, the finishes calm and architectural, and the result is a floor that feels integral rather than ancillary. The principal bedroom occupies the first floor, complete with a large dressing room and an expansive ensuite bathroom finished in natural stone. A second bedroom suite sits alongside, equally well proportioned. The upper floors provide two further bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, while one provides a versatile multi-purpose room opening onto a broad roof terrace with views across the treetops of Maida Vale. Outside, the house is unusually well served. Two side gardens, a front courtyard and a kitchen terrace create a sequence of outdoor rooms, while secure gated parking provides space for two cars. A separate studio at the end of the garden offers further flexibility for staff, guests or a private workspace. This stretch of Warwick Avenue has long drawn writers, artists and families who value its quiet, almost waterside atmosphere. Directly opposite the Regent’s Canal, with morning coffee at Clifton Nurseries and walks along the towpath towards Regent’s Park, the setting feels gently removed from the city’s pace. The neighbourhood has the ease of a village, with Clifton Road and Formosa Street only moments away, yet Paddington and Marylebone are close enough to keep central London within easy reach.
