About
Rare opportunity in a superbly located building that writers and politicians have called home.
Stepping into the flat on the first floor, the entrance hall opens onto a reception room with high ceilings and full-length windows.
Double doors flow through to an equally lofty and bright dining room. This level also features a bedroom suite with a bathroom, as well as a galley kitchen.
The property also features a studio space on the third floor with an ensuite bathroom and kitchenette. Furthermore, there is a storage and utility space on the lower ground floor.
This newly renovated property has been decorated in a restrained, sophisticated style that blends traditional grandeur with modern convenience.
Wooden floors, marble worktops, and tiled bathrooms add to the overall impression of elegance. The property includes a balcony running across the width of two rooms.
The Albany is a majestic apartment building in the heart of Mayfair with a unique history.
It was originally constructed in the late eighteenth century as a London mansion for the Duke of York by the celebrated architect Henry Holland.
In 1802 it was separated into 69 bachelor apartments, becoming home to many of London’s most celebrated aristocrats, politicians, writers and artists.
Over the years, residents have included the poet Lord Byron, the Prime Minister William Gladstone and the playwright J.B. Priestley.
From here, the world-class restaurants and shops of Mayfair are close. Green Park and Hyde Park are both within walking distance, while the West End is also nearby.
