4 bed terraced house to rent

John Adam Street, Charing Cross WC2N

Architectural Significance
Originally built in 1673, just after the Great Fire of London, the house is one of only ten townhouses of its kind still standing in the capital. The Regency-style façade was added in the early 1800s, while the interiors retain their rarely preserved Georgian craftsmanship, including one of the few original paneled stairwells left in the city.

Location, Location, Location
Tucked away in the historic Adelphi conservation area, this exclusive enclave once formed the gardens of the Duke of Buckingham’s York House. Today, it’s a quiet pocket in the beating heart of central London — just a short stroll to:

Covent Garden, the Savoy, and the Strand (3 mins)
The National Gallery, Trafalgar Square, and Embankment (3 mins)
Soho, Leicester Square, and Theatreland (10–12 mins)
Westminster, Parliament, and the South Bank (12–15 mins)

With both Charing Cross and Embankment stations just a minute away, exploring the rest of London is effortless — but most of the city’s best spots are genuinely walkable.

Eat, Drink & Explore
From Michelin-starred dining to buzzing street food, riverside walks, galleries, cocktail bars, theatres, and world-famous shopping — it’s all at your doorstep. Supermarkets, markets, and 24/7 delivery options are within a few minutes’ walk.

A Note on Character
This is a historic building with original features and quirks: Some sloped floors, slightly uneven stairs, and exposed floorboards. It's full of charm, but please take care on the stairs, especially with children or older guests.
