An extraordinary 3,180 sq.ft.

Owned by the current vendors since 1977, and the first time on the market in almost 50 years, the trophy penthouse on Cadogan Square has private lift access, and is located on the top fourth floor of a grand red-brick gabled Victorian mansion building designed and built in 1877-1878 by noted architect William Young for Lord Cadogan.

The Flemish-style architecture provides the top floor with exceptionally high vaulted ceilings, and during the recent refurbishment award-winning Knightsbridge interior designer Louise Bradley reconfigured structurally the internal layout opening up the ceilings of the penthouse to follow the roofline, creating a dramatic double reception room with double- height 18 ft high vaulted ceiling and mezzanine floor, with all the other principal rooms of the penthouse also beneftting from vaulted ceilings. Louise Bradley has dressed and interior designed the penthouse in her signature contemporary classic style, with the vaulted ceilings, illuminated at night with ceiling spotlights, giving the beautiful and luxurious living spaces an ambience that fuses London elegance with Manhattan loft living. From the penthouse windows there are rooftop views of nearby Harrods, the world’s most famous luxury department store. The entrance hall leads into the timber floored dual- aspect double reception room, which spans the entire depth of the building, with an unrivalled bright and airy ambience generated by natural light cascading into the living space through full height glazing and windows at floor level and a series of large skylights in the vaulted ceiling. Off the reception space a cantilvered glass staircase with timber treads and glass balustrades leads up to the mezzanine floor which offers a second living space/study, with glass balustrades overlooking the main living room below.Built in joinery with LED lighting at floor and mezzanine level has created a stunning double-height library rising through one end of the living space, the perfect place for showcasing objet d’ art and Assouline display books. The reception room leads into a dual aspect media room which forms a third living/entertaining space. Also off the main reception room is the fully fitted family kitchen with veined-marble breakfast bar and separate utility room with kitchen details including paved white stone flooring, white and marble-effect cabinets and a comprehensive range of integrated appliances.
