6 bed property for sale

St John's Wood, London NW8, United Kingdom

Description

Occupying a corner plot on one of St. John’s Wood’s most desirable streets, this six-bedroom detached house is characterised by its period features, which are complemented by exceptional contemporary design. Painstakingly rebuilt from the ground up over four years, the home has been transformed by New York-based architect Steven Gambrel into a sanctuary of light, scale and sophistication.

Set behind a restored historic façade and a newly built boundary wall, the house is framed by limestone columns and double-paned sash windows that flood the interiors with natural light. Inside, soaring ceilings, clean architectural lines and flawless finishes run throughout. The result is an exceptional family home that balances grandeur with comfort.

The living and entertaining spaces are expansive yet inviting, with a layout designed for both family life and entertaining. There’s a versatile garage/summer house, secure off-street parking for three cars and a beautifully landscaped garden that wraps around the home, a private setting for alfresco dining or unwinding with friends. Upstairs, five bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged, with five bathrooms and abundant natural light in every room. A sixth bedroom with a walk-in wardobe lies on the lower-ground floor.

Carlton Hill itself is a quiet residential enclave, known for its leafy outlook, community feel and proximity to the independent boutiques, cafés and restaurants of St. John’s Wood High Street. Regent’s Park, Primrose Hill and Lord’s Cricket Ground are all a short stroll away, while the Jubilee Line offers seamless access to the West End and beyond
