Russell House is a historically significant building, named after its first owner, Lord Russell, the First Lord of the Admiralty. Originally constructed in 1716 by the renowned Baroque architect Thomas Archer, it is the oldest surviving building in Covent Garden Piazza. In recent years, dd Architects worked with a team of specialists to oversee a complete refurbishment of this Grade II* listed building, which had previously suffered damage, including the loss of its ground floor and poor cosmetic 'restoration' in the 1970s. Today, Russell House stands as a beautifully restored property that seamlessly blends its rich history with contemporary luxury, offering a rare opportunity to reside in one of London's most sought-after locations.
This exquisite top-floor flat, accessible by lift, offers the perfect blend of historical charm and modern living in the heart of Covent Garden. The property features a spacious 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom flat along with a separate one-bedroom flat, ideal for guests or additional rental income. The office space is bathed in natural light, creating an inspiring environment for work or creative pursuits. The flat is south-facing, providing breath-taking views over the iconic Covent Garden Piazza, and a private roof terrace offers a serene space for relaxation while enjoying the vibrant surroundings.
