The neighborhood
St John’s Wood is one of London’s most desirable and refined neighbourhoods, known for its wide tree-lined avenues, detached villas, and village-like charm just minutes from the West End. Nestled within the City of Westminster, the area has long attracted artists, musicians, and families alike — offering a quieter, more residential feel while still being exceptionally well-connected.

Just a short walk from the house, Regent’s Park offers formal gardens, open fields, and access to ZSL London Zoo. Lord’s Cricket Ground, often referred to as the “Home of Cricket,” is also nearby and hosts international matches and museum tours. The immediate surroundings offer a peaceful retreat from the bustle of the city, with picturesque streets, classic architecture, and a strong sense of community.

St John’s Wood High Street is the local hub, just 0.5 miles away, featuring a mix of upmarket shops, cosy cafés, independent boutiques, and well-regarded restaurants such as The Ivy, Soutine, and Panzer’s Delicatessen. For everyday essentials, guests will find supermarkets, pharmacies, and wine shops within walking distance.

The area is also home to excellent private and international schools, making it a popular choice for families. Neighbouring districts such as Maida Vale, Primrose Hill, and Marylebone are within easy reach, offering further cultural spots, local pubs, and weekend markets to explore.

Other things to note
The property is currently for sale. This means occasional viewings may take place during your stay. A member of our cleaning team will tidy the property on the morning of any scheduled viewing, and we will always provide advance notice. Viewings typically last no more than 10 minutes.

Benefits of staying in a for-sale property include:

• Complimentary tidies ahead of viewings
• A reduced nightly rate for a well-maintained and recently styled home
• A full night refunded if the property is sold as a result of a viewing during your stay

This home includes a platform lift, similar to a wheelchair-accessible design. It features open sides and uses a safety beam system – meaning if anything interrupts the beam (such as limbs or objects extending beyond the carriage), the lift will automatically stop. Guests with children or pets may wish to take extra care when using the lift.

The property is arranged over five floors and includes multiple staircases. While the lift provides access between all levels, guests should be comfortable navigating stairs throughout their stay.

There is also a private gym room on-site, available for guest use. Please note that use of gym equipment is entirely at your own risk, and guests are responsible for supervising any children in or near the gym and swimming pool space. No instruction or personal training is provided. The pool is separated by a heavy glass door and may require servicing during guest stay.

Functional gas fires are located in the kitchen and main lounge; there is underfloor heating in winter and air conditioning in summer; guests should note these may require servicing during their stay.
