The Property

One of 3 well-appointed luxury apartments, 25a is accessed via its own private wrought-iron gated entrance with a new block-paved approach, planted flowerbed, and new double bike shed (to be completed), this elegant first-floor apartment combines space, light, and original Edwardian character.

A feature Edwardian staircase with decorative newel posts leads up to the landing, where a striking stained-glass feature stairwell creates a memorable focal point.

The layout includes three double bedrooms: a spacious principal room with fireplace and large windows and its own en-suite shower room, a generous guest bedroom, and a third double that could also serve as a office/study or nursery. The bathroom features a luxurious roll-top bath, separate shower, and vintage-effect suite, with an additional WC for convenience.

The generous living and dining space is complemented by a newly fitted Howdens kitchen with integrated oven, fridge-freezer, and dishwasher. A new stained-glass front door and Edwardian entranceway enhance the home’s sense of heritage and craftsmanship.

History

Built in 1895, the villa was once the home of Colonel Sir Henry Knollys KCVO, courtier to Queen Queen Maud of Norway. 25 Meyrick Park Crescent therefore carries genuine royal-household provenance, with the building now tastefully restored into elegant apartments.
