Description


Flat 1 at Wimpole House, located in historic Marylebone, offers a blend of 19th-century charm and contemporary luxury. This first-floor sanctuary boasts grand sash windows and high ceilings that enhance its spacious layout. The modern kitchen, with its white gloss cabinets and marble countertops, complements an elegant reception room with bay windows and intricate detailing. The peaceful bedrooms and a luxurious bathroom round out the living spaces, all adorned with Georgian features and a tranquil palette. Set within a Grade II listed building, this flat promises the height of London living, moments from the city's finest amenities.

Prestige On The Pavement

Take a look at one of the most desired apartments in Marylebone: Flat 1, Wimpole House, 29 Wimpole Street.

You’ll immediately recognise this building as one of Marylebone’s rich tapestry of architectural history. Built in 1892-93 for the respected solicitor and property investor, Samuel Lithgow, this Grade II listed building is both incredibly well-built and boasts an abundance of period features.

Standing proudly on the corner of New Cavendish Street and Wimpole Street, this building has been admired for generations. Its unique decorative ironwork and redbrick structure are indicative of buildings of prestige during the late Georgian period. But possibly our favourite period feature witnessed from the pavement has to be the classical detailing adorning the windows and framing the entrance. Prestigious columns, acanthus leaves and perfect symmetry are all recognisable details that tell a story from Georgian times.

Enter Flat One

Enter Flat One, located on the first floor of Wimpole House, which allows a perfect view of London without feeling as though one is exposed to passersby. The first aspect of the apartment that you’ll notice and fall in love with is the feeling of spaciousness and an abundance of natural light.

Sky-high ceilings and tall sash windows provide the perfect amount of space in each and every room and create a sense of both comfort and grandeur. The layout has been thoughtfully curated, with the bedrooms accommodating one side of the apartment and living spaces on the opposite side. So, let’s explore all that the rooms have to offer…

Chic & Sleek Kitchen

First and foremost, the kitchen and informal dining space. Finished in a chic white gloss with granite flooring and marble-effect countertops and coordinated backsplash, this monochrome design is clean and stylish. The kitchen boasts a generous amount of worktop for preparing meals, sharing the cooking with a loved one or presenting a feast for the family to enjoy.

The layout is minimal but with all of the modern conveniences catered for. The kitchen features a sleek electric hob, a deep stainless steel sink with a spring-necked tap and plentiful storage options.

For when you’re simply grabbing a quick bite to eat, or for your guest to keep you company whilst you cook the evening meal, there is a compact table and chairs set next to the tall window with views of iconic London architecture.

Grand & Ambient Reception Room
The living area is where you and your family and/or guests will spend a great deal of time. And why wouldn’t you? This room is beautiful. Decorated in an elegant neutral palette, the eyes are drawn to the details: the expansive bay windows that flood the room with natural light, the exquisite cornices and the unique detailing on those soaring ceilings.
This room has plenty of space for a living area and a separate dining area. Picture your family dining beside that beautiful bay window and, afterwards, retiring to the living space and sinking into a sumptuous sofa. This room possesses an incredibly inviting ambience for both relaxation and entertainment and plenty of space to modify the layout of furniture and create a room that meets your individual needs.
Decorative Style & Detailing
Deep skirting boards, detailed cornicing and symmetrical patterns adorning the sky-high ceilings are all typical features of Georgian architecture and can be found throughout the apartment. To allow these features to take centre stage, the decor in each room has been kept in a minimal, sophisticated way. You’ll find soft, oatmeal carpeting, neutral walls, light-toned blinds and elegant radiator covers throughout the property.


Idyllic Bedrooms

Each bedroom within the flat has been thoughtfully designed to offer the utmost comfort and style, featuring plush carpets, ample storage, and large windows that frame picturesque views of the surrounding cityscape.

The apartment benefits from two generously sized double rooms that can easily fit a king-size bed and furniture. Both feature sizeable built-in wardrobe storage with a delicate period design and also, perhaps our favourite, an extensive window seat.

This charming window seat provides the perfect spot for watching the world go by, observing all that London has to offer. A spot for seeking inspiration, immersing yourself in music or a book, silent study, or simply soaking up the London vibe surrounding the home.

The third, smaller bedroom can easily be converted into a study or office space if preferred. Similarly to the other bedrooms, it is decorated neutrally and receives an extraordinary amount of natural light owing to that generously sized window.

A Family Bathroom

The apartment boasts a large family bathroom adorned with premium fixtures and elegant tiling, providing a serene retreat to unwind and rejuvenate. Considering the needs of each member of the family, the bathroom comprises a luxurious double-ended bathtub as well as a spacious rainfall shower. Furthermore, you’ll find a close-coupled toilet, a bidet and a washbasin. And for your convenience, there’s a heated towel rail, storage and a charging point. Once again, this room feels light and spacious owing to the high ceilings, well-sized window and neutral styling.

Living in Marylebone

Wimpole House is located in one of the most fantastic spots in Central London. Positioned ideally for access to the buzz of Oxford Street and Regent Street. Or perhaps you’d prefer, like the current owner, to take a stroll down Marylebone High Street for a delicious breakfast. Whether you prefer a few hours browsing the boutiques or heading over to Leicester Square for a show, everything is within easy reach.

Many choose to reside here in Marylebone for a variety of reasons - excellent medical and educational establishments or an everlasting list of entertainment options. We love the proximity of idyllic green spaces combined with the excitement of city living. Spend an afternoon in Regents Park, sharing a picnic with the family and then head out later in the evening and experience a world-class restaurant with friends.

The current owner had searched for many months before finally discovering Wimpole House and immediately fell in love with the space and its proximity to arguably the best that London has to offer. It offers a sense of comfort, spaciousness and grandeur and is an ideal home for families.
