Huge 18th Century Georgian London Townhouse (R)

6 Bedrooms 12 Guests 3 BathsView Amenities

Description

OVERVIEW:
Historic Townhouse In The Heart of London. Within 20 Min Walk to Theatre Land, Westminster & Museums. Stunning Historic Townhouse Built 1740. 2 Min Walk To Imperial War Museum. 15min Walk To Parliament. Sleeps 12 (6 Bedrooms plus sofa bed in one of the many lounges)

RECEPTIONS: It boasts 5 large reception rooms including the (1) kitchen suite with 7 sets of french doors opening on to the large mature garden, (2) the family TV room which is 20ft x 30ft, (3) the study (4) the dining room and (5) the Sitting Room which can also be a 7th bedroom with a sofa bed.

BEDROOMS: 6 interior designed bedrooms with large beds and lots of character (many can be twin or king) and loads of light, including an amazing vaulted ceilinged master bedroom featuring two sofas and and 12ft high canopy super king bed along with a luxurious marble en suite with a polished roll top bath.

KITCHENS: It has a bespoke chef's kitchen (150cm double oven with 8 hobs) with cooking area and 3 sofa lounge area looking over the garden, plus an additional separate second kitchen / utility. It is one of the biggest and oldest private houses in Kennington(reputed to have the oldest door chain in Kennington) with some beautiful original features and a layout where you can all group together or have your own space depending on our your needs.

Ideal for a large family group, friends travelling together or people who love space.

FACILITIES: The house has a multi room audio system so you can pipe music round the house, also you can stream worldwide radio and music, as well as having a partners desk in the study, super fast wifi network and numerous TVs.

OUTSIDE: We are set back off the road with a front garden with mature trees and are also are lucky enough to have a huge secret triangular garden at the rear of the house (74ft x 150ft) with mature trees, rambling climbers and a croquet lawn, not to mention outdoor furniture and a wisteria clad archway. You can even hear Big Ben chime in the garden whilst the house itself shields street noise.

THE AREA: We love the area too - The neighbourhood is one of London's best kept secrets and they regularly shoot films on Georgian square behind us. Too central to be a suburb it is a real authentic old part of central London littered with history, and where so much of it got destroyed in WWII - our house luckily survived. Kennington is in a bubble of land on the south side of the River Thames so in 5-20mins on foot you can get to so many places. We are are just 15 mins walk to Westminster, Tate Britain, and 25 mins walk National Galleries, Covent Garden, South Bank, and Theatreland - plus there's the West End with cafes, bars, clubs and restaurants accessible by foot or taxi. We are even right next to (1min walk) to the Imperial War Museum and park. The bus network virtually goes everywhere form the Imperial war Museum and Lambeth North Tube or Waterloo are the nearest underground stations.

Unbelievably amazing stay!

The minute you walk through the door you cannot believe how amazing is this house. Firstly it is huge for central London and has a unique history. It has been transformed by its owners into a warren of vast bedrooms, sitting rooms, top class bathrooms, the best kitchen for design and stocked with everything you need to cook and store food. All this leading to a garden with lawn and mature trees blocking out any neighbours. Quiet at night, comfortable beds. Walk to the south bank, and the river - amazing. food shop next door - and wood fired pizza. Also a huge thank you to Caroline who welcomed us and managed everything so perfectly and professionally and was totally charming and helpful. No hesitation in giving more than 5 stars! Thank you!! ”

Superb

We had an amazing stay at this wonderful home. It was clean and beautifully appointed and "huge". The position is excellent with buses right outside and the tube just a 7 minute walk.and even Westminster Bridge a 15 minutes walk. The owner was very helpful as was the house keeper which made this the perfect stay. ”
