Designed by Georgian architect Henry Holland, the building quickly became a preferred address for writers, artists, politicians and members of the aristocracy. Over the years, residents have included figures such as Lord Byron and Aldous Huxley, adding to Albany's enduring reputation. This elegantly finished one-bedroom apartment offers a rare opportunity to live in one of London's most exclusive and historically significant residences.

Upon entry, the eye is immediately drawn to the elegant reception room, bathed in natural light thanks to two original floor-to-ceiling sash windows. Period details abound, including beautifully preserved original timber flooring, intricate cornicing, and a striking hand-carved marble fireplace. Adjoining the reception is a study, equally bright and well-appointed, featuring bespoke shelving, a further marble fireplace, and a mezzanine level; ideal for a library, reading room or additional workspace.

The kitchen is both impressive and highly functional, with marble worktops, a discreetly integrated stove, top-of-the-line Gaggenau appliances, and a generous breakfast bar with seating for eight. There is ample space for a large dining table and an additional seating area.

An original wooden staircase leads to a versatile upper-level room, currently arranged as a media room. Here, exposed brick walls and a vaulted ceiling create a further beautiful space which is truly one-of-a-kind.

The principal bedroom is a showpiece in itself, generously proportioned and adorned with beautiful hand-painted wallpaper. It features a freestanding copper bathtub and an original spiral staircase that ascends to a walk-in wardrobe complete with extensive built-in cabinetry. There is also a separate marble-clad shower room. An additional enviable feature is the apartment's private wine cellar located on the lower ground floor with an art-deco aesthetic.

Residents of Albany benefit from exceptional communal amenities, including 24-hour concierge service, access to tranquil private gardens and the historic Rope Walk. 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.
