Set across the fourth and fifth floors of a handsome period building on one of Mayfair’s most distinguished addresses, this beautifully executed duplex penthouse has been designed by Rigby & Rigby and comes fully furnished. Behind the red-brick façade, the apartment feels calm, polished and thoroughly resolved, pairing the character of the original building with a more contemporary sense of space and finish. Entered directly by lift, the main living floor is arranged for both entertaining and day-to-day ease. A wonderfully generous reception room stretches across the front of the building, with high ceilings, a series of large sash windows and ample space for both sitting and dining. Just beyond, the kitchen is sleek and architectural, finished in dark joinery and pale stone, with a separate dressing area leading through to the principal bedroom suite. This floor also holds the principal bathroom, finished in marble, along with excellent built-in storage. Upstairs, two further bedrooms sit beneath the eaves, giving the upper floor a more tucked-away, private feel. They are served by a second bathroom and are well suited to guests, children or a study, depending on need. Interior design has been handled with real confidence throughout. Natural stone, oak, mirrored joinery and crisp plasterwork bring a sense of cohesion, while the furnishing scheme adds warmth and softness without tipping into fussiness. The property also features a weekday daytime porter. Mount Street remains one of the most desirable addresses in Mayfair, known for its elegant architecture, independent boutiques, excellent restaurants and immediate access to Grosvenor Square and Hyde Park. For anyone looking for a turnkey London base in the heart of the West End, this is an exceptionally smart option.
