Although it has been refurbished by Fenton Whelan in a luxe modern style, the historic building retains many of art deco characteristics, including its white Portland stone exterior, ornate windows and magnificent bronze doors. Inside, the £8.95 million apartment features three en-suite bedrooms, a stylish kitchen and open-plan dining and living spaces, plus oak flooring and bespoke sliding walls. Glamorous details include the towering 2.6-metre-high doors, antique bronze ironmongery and sophisticated patterned marble flooring.

According to a recent report by Beauchamp Estates, PCL (prime central London) residential values are expected to rise slightly in the year ahead, from one to two per cent. The volume of PCL deals, meanwhile, could be set to climb by 30 per cent compared to 2022, largely driven by wealthy buyers from the USA, Europe and the Middle East.
Prime London property commands princely price tags, with residential sales in Mayfair last year averaging £2,077 per square foot. In rural areas, meanwhile, buyers can typically expect significantly more space for their pounds: an eight-bedroom Northamptonshire manor owned by the late Queen’s cousin, the Duke of Gloucester, is currently under offer for £4.75 million. This encompasses a 16,731-square-foot house set in 26.94 acres of land, all for just over half the sale price of the Greybrook House apartment.
