Home of the 10th Marquess of Queensberry for sale
An impressive home for sale on Brook Green in West London was once lived in by Percy Sholto Douglas, the 10th Marquess of Queensberry (1868 – 1920), in the early part of the 20th century.
The Marquess’ brother Lord Alfred Douglas was notoriously the lover of renowned Irish playwright Oscar Wilde.
Near to Holland Park and originally built in 1796, the huge seven-bedroom home is one of the largest residences in the area with its 6,135 sq ft of space. A Victorian extension was added in the 1830s, followed by further renovation in 2010.
Luxurious features in the property consist of a wine cellar, gym, cinema room, double garage and magnificent double aspect reception room. Four elegant bathrooms – two ensuite – can be found in the home.
A separate loft-style annexe was built in 2010, which offers a bedroom and is ideal as guest accommodation. It also has its own entrance.
Also of note is the light and airy conservatory, which leads out to the pretty walled garden. It's almost of country house proportions and unusual for a zone two London property. A veranda, patio, and lawn make up the space.
This property is available for £8 million through Finlay Brewer.
