Property description
This handsome Grade II listed townhouse occupies a proud position on one of Hyde Park's most historic garden squares, offering a sequence of elegant, deeply generous rooms that feel wonderfully private yet effortlessly central. Arranged over six storeys, the house combines stately proportions with thoughtful contemporary touches, forming a sophisticated family home with an unmistakably London sensibility.
A grand entrance hall sets the tone, revealing a formal dining room framed by tall sash windows and original cornicing. Beyond, a sleek contemporary kitchen opens to a secluded terrace that feels surprisingly intimate for such a central position. At the back of this level, there is also a dedicated study, ideal for quiet working days or reading overlooking the courtyard below.
The first floor is given over to a magnificent dual-aspect reception room. Light spills from double-height windows on either side, drawing attention to the fine period fireplace, the generous ceiling height and the decorative details preserved throughout. French doors open to a half-landing terrace that offers a charming vantage point over the rooftops.
Across the upper floors lie three substantial bedrooms, each arranged with a clarity of layout that lends itself naturally to family life. The principal suite takes over the whole second floor and feels particularly indulgent, with its walk-in wardrobe and private bathroom.
At the top of the house, two further bedrooms rest beneath the roofline, tucked quietly away from the principal living spaces. On the lower ground floor, an additional reception room provides welcome versatility, whether used as a media den, children's playroom or a peaceful secondary living space. There is also a utility room and two bedrooms arranged around a courtyard on this floor.
Connaught Square itself is one of Bayswater's great landmarks. The square's handsome stuccoed terraces encircle a private residents' garden, accessed exclusively by keyholders, which lends a rare softness to city life. Hyde Park is within moments, and the boutiques and cafés of Connaught Village bring an atmosphere that feels both local and refined. Paddington and Marble Arch are close at hand, securing excellent transport connections. It is a location that balances tradition and convenience with quiet residential charm, perfectly suited to those seeking London at its most polished.
