'A cathedral among mews'
Ian Nairn, Architectural Critic
Tucked away on one of London’s most picture-perfect mews is a two-bedroom freehold home with a striking façade that presents a period charm. Complete with a private garage, terrace and well-presented rustic interior this 1,303 sq. ft. mews house set within Holland Park Mews is available through Prime Central London specialists Maskells for £2.35 million.
Dating back to 1860, Holland Park Mews is a collection of 67 homes, the majority Grade II listed and first built as stables to serve the large mansion houses that line Holland Park. Entered through an engraved arch, also Grade II listed, with a cobbled road through its centre,Holland Park Mews has long been coveted as one of London’s most exclusive residential enclaves, described as a ‘very ritzy mews’ by the Pevsner Architectural Guides and a ‘cathedral among mews’’ by the architectural critic Ian Nairn.
Sought after due to its peaceful and private location, as well as its prime central location and proximity to Holland Park, Holland Park Mews has strong connections to the film industry, with the actor Sir Ian Holm (Alien, The Lord of the Rings, The Fifth Element) a former resident. The mews also appeared in two hit movies of the 1960s – Crossplot (1969) starring Roger Moore and Corruption (1968) starring Peter Cushing.
The property embodies the character and charm of a traditional mews house with a picturesque frontage and interiors of exposed brick, beams and original period features.
An impressive open-plan reception, dining, and kitchen space extending across the majority of the first floor, providing a bright and spacious area perfect for entertaining and everyday living.
The kitchen is fitted with sleek modern cabinetry and integrated appliances, while the generous proportions of the room allow for distinct dining and seating areas. Large windows fill the space with natural light, whilst direct access onto a private terrace opens up the room, especially in the summer months. A study is also situated on the first floor, perfect for home working or as an additional bedroom.
On the ground floor is the generously proportioned principal bedroom, as well as two bathrooms. The bathrooms are finished in a contemporary style with modern fittings and clean architectural lines.
A standout feature of the house is the integrated private garage, a rare and highly sought-after addition in this prime central London location, providing secure parking and additional storage space.
Ideally situated just moments from the outstanding amenities of Holland Park, Kensington, and Notting Hill, residents of Holland Park Mews benefit from easy access to a wide selection of boutiques, cafés, restaurants, and green open spaces, whilst excellent transport links provide convenient access across Central London and beyond from Holland Park Underground (Central line).
