5 bed flat for sale

Hereford House, North Row, Mayfair W1K

A sixth-floor lateral apartment of 2,609 sqft in Hereford House, one of Mayfair's most established mansion blocks, arranged over a single level with the proportions only a purpose-built 1930s building delivers.

The apartment has been comprehensively refurbished, and the quality of the work shows in the detail: Herringbone parquet through the principal rooms, panelled and inlaid joinery, full-slab marble in the bathrooms, bespoke lighting and air conditioning throughout.

The reception room is the centrepiece, running 28'7" by 25'2" across the front of the building, with ample room for formal dining alongside a substantial seating area. A guest powder room sits off the entrance hall, and the kitchen and dining room is separate, fitted with integrated appliances and finished in marble, positioned between the entertaining space and the bedrooms.

Five double bedrooms occupy the quieter half of the plan, each with its own en suite bathroom and fitted storage, and each finished to the same standard as the principal rooms. The layout affords genuine separation between entertaining and sleeping accommodation, which at this size is more valuable than it first appears.

Hereford House is among Mayfair's most established addresses, with grand communal areas, a 24-hour concierge and lift access serving the apartment floor directly. Held on a long lease with approximately 151 years unexpired, it offers rare lateral space, a considered refurbishment and an address that requires no explanation.

Hereford House stands on North Row, the quiet residential street behind Oxford Street, a few minutes from Hyde Park and Marble Arch. Mayfair's shopping, dining and gallery life sits immediately to the south and east, while the building addresses a calm, low-traffic street of classic 1930s architecture. Mount Street, Berkeley Square and the Connaught are a short walk away, and Marble Arch and Bond Street stations place the Central, Jubilee and Elizabeth lines within minutes.
