Stylish home in only mews in London with stables
Bathurst Mews in Hyde Park, London, is the only mews in the city which has retained working stables. And now, a stylish and fully refurbished home on the street has come on the market.
Mews are streets of houses that have been converted from stables but it is rare that horses are still kept in them, unlike at the historic cobbled Bathurst Mews, which is home to Hyde Park Stables and Ross Nye Stables.
According to the history book The Mews of London, the street is also the former home of the King Henry Livery Stables. Up until 1939, there were 200 working mews in central London but these have all gradually been transformed into houses and offices.
The home presents beautiful contemporary interiors and modern conveniences, and offers between two and four bedrooms depending on the requirements of the buyer. Two of the bedrooms have ensuite bathrooms.
Arranged over four floors, the mews house also has a triple-aspect reception room, custom-designed staircases and open-plan kitchen and dining room with high ceilings and neutral décor. There is a media room in the basement, along with an office/gym space.
Hardwood doors, Lutron lighting, underfloor heating and solid oak flooring can be found throughout the property. The house further benefits from having a full new roof, new hardwood sash windows which are double glazed and a 10 year guarantee for the basement and sub-basement works.
Located to the north of the park, the property benefits from a central London location and is close to Lancaster Gate and Paddington stations.
This property is available for £3,950,000 through Knight Frank.
