Tucked away in the heart of Mayfair, Albany has stood as a quiet emblem of prestige and refinement since 1802. Once the grand London home of the Duke of York, this distinguished Georgian landmark, designed by Henry Holland, was transformed into 69 bachelor apartments and swiftly became the address of choice for London’s elite. Over the centuries, luminaries such as Lord Byron and Aldous Huxley have called Albany home, shaping its legacy as one of the city’s most exclusive and storied residences.

This elegantly finished one-bedroom apartment offers a rare opportunity to experience life within this iconic enclave.

Upon entry, one is immediately struck by the refined reception room, filled with natural light streaming through two original floor-to-ceiling sash windows. Period features are beautifully preserved; from the original timber floors and intricate cornicing to the striking hand-carved marble fireplace.

Adjoining the reception is a bright, sophisticated study which could also work as a second bedroom, complete with bespoke shelving, a second marble fireplace.
A charming mezzanine level - ideal as a private library, tv snug, reading nook, or additional workspace - is tucked away up the origional period staircase.

The kitchen and dining area impress with both form and function. Marble worktops, discreetly integrated Gaggenau appliances, and a generous breakfast bar with seating for eight create a space perfectly suited to both everyday living and elegant entertaining. There is ample room for a large dining table and a comfortable seating area, blending practicality with grandeur.

An original wooden staircase leads to a versatile upper-level media room, where exposed brick walls and a vaulted ceiling combine to create a space that is as atmospheric as it is unique.

The principal bedroom suite is a true sanctuary generously proportioned and exquisitely detailed with hand-painted wallpaper. It features a striking freestanding copper bathtub, an original spiral staircase leading to a bespoke walk-in wardrobe, and a luxurious marble-clad shower room.

Adding to the apartment’s allure is a private wine cellar on the lower ground floor, designed with a refined Art Deco aesthetic.

Residents of Albany enjoy 24-hour concierge service, access to tranquil private gardens, and the historic Rope Walk, making this an exceptional opportunity to own a home that balances heritage, discretion, and timeless luxury.

Located mere moments from the luxury boutiques of Bond Street and the verdant Green Park, residents enjoy unparalleled access to London’s finest cultural and culinary
offerings.
