Offering unparalleled privacy and style, this exceptional three-storey townhouse occupies a unique position at the rear of the easterly wing of Sussex Square. Accessed via its own street entrance on Bristol Place, the property welcomes you through a beautifully maintained walled garden and an elegant pilastered front door. The exterior blends seamlessly with the historic 19th-century architecture surrounding it, while oversized modern charcoal-framed windows introduce a fresh, contemporary edge.

Inside, the ground floor impresses with a spacious entrance hall that curves gracefully around the staircase descending to the lower level, creating a generous landing that serves perfectly as a study or relaxation area. The principal bedroom suite, bathed in morning sunlight from its east-facing aspect, provides a serene retreat featuring plush carpeting, private garden views, and a chic ensuite bathroom finished with the finest fixtures—exemplifying a harmonious balance of comfort and luxury.

Ascending to the upper floor, you will find two further beautifully appointed bedrooms with dual-aspect windows, delivering abundant natural light and elegant finishes. These rooms share a pristine family bathroom, thoughtfully designed with a sophisticated monochrome palette and a shower over the bath.

The true heart of this home lies on the lower ground floor, accessed via a curved staircase that unfolds into a stunning open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area. Here, the original 19th-century architecture is celebrated with exposed brickwork and two magnificent archways—signature elements designed by the renowned architect Edwin Lutyens—creating a breathtaking focal point. The sitting and formal dining areas offer an inviting space for entertaining, while the sleek, fully integrated kitchen includes a stylish island breakfast bar that doubles as a social hub. Abundant natural light floods the space through expansive atrium skylights, enhancing the warm and inviting atmosphere.

This townhouse is genuinely one-of-a-kind within Sussex Square—a harmonious blend of historic charm and contemporary luxury. An extraordinary home that must be viewed to be truly appreciated.
