The building has been re-built and re-envisioned by award-winning architect Neil Wilson for a modern interior floor plan and an exterior restored to its former historic glory.
The facade has been painstakingly restored to Etchell's design with widened windows on the second floor and floor-to-ceiling height balcony windows on the first floor, having obtained special permission. Window surrounds and the double-door entrance have been restored to the original Georgian historic style and updated with hand-finished marble for a subtle and contemporary feel.
Hardwood sourced from a Victorian-era ship have been used with a bespoke pattern to clad the ground floor lobby, dining room and kitchen as well as the first floor library area and formal drawing room.
While most houses on Culross Street are listed, 14 Culross Street is freehold which allowed the opening up of the floor plan for space and light, the addition of a lift, conservatory and (concealed) heating and air-conditioning. A unique bonus is the quiet and secluded communal garden to the rear.
Every room is extensively pre-wired with CAT-5 cables for data, security and home automation (positioned for blinds, television and lighting), multiple telephone cables an high-end audio cables- culminating in a data/server/media-hub room on the ground floor. All rooms, including the en-suite bathrooms, feature air-conditioning and heating through individual built-in ceiling units as well as underfloor heating.
Viewing by appointment with the owner's main agent, GA Residential.
Originally built in 1732, the building was reconstructed and restored by renowned artist and architect Frederick Etchells (whose work is featured at the Tate Gallery) in 1927. He favoured a Georgian style that set the tone for the restoration of the rest of the neighbourhood.
The property was also once home of Hugh Waldorf Astor, newspaper scion (of the famed American Astor family) and song of John Jacob Astor V, first Baron Astor of Hever, Member of Parliament and owner of The Times of London.
