Renowned real estate virtuoso Michael Holt, an associate broker with Compass, has astounded the property world once again. This time, he brings an extraordinary opportunity for luxury connoisseurs and history aficionados alike. Holt reveals a rare historical mansion nestled in the opulent heart of Mayfair, London, located at 28 South Street, with an asking price of £35 million.
This meticulously preserved mansion stands as a testament to the grandeur of a bygone era. Holt, celebrated for his prowess in curating properties of exceptional distinction, has curated this offering to transcend geographical boundaries. The significance of this Mayfair gem resonates across continents, drawing the attention of international buyers and investors from Manhattan to every corner of the globe.
With its distinctive red-brick exterior, adorned with stone dressing and neo-classical cornices, this five-story mansion stands out as a true architectural gem. Its Edwardian facade, boasting a stunning double-fronted design with five wide windows, is a testament to its grandeur. The beautiful Beaux-Arts style Portland stone doorway and the ornate Portland stone quoins add to its allure. Notably, the two large chimneys, which have been symbols of prestige and wealth for centuries, further enhance the mansion’s wonderful presence.
Holt’s reputation as a real estate luminary rests on his ability to transform properties into enduring works of art, capturing the essence of their past while seamlessly integrating contemporary comforts. The Mayfair mansion showcases intricate architectural detailing, sprawling grounds, and opulent interiors that reflect the refined taste of a golden era.“I am thrilled to be the American representative to market this exquisite residence,” Holt remarked. “This mansion is not merely a residence; it’s a living chronicle of Mayfair’s rich heritage. Its integration of period-specific details and modern luxuries offers an unparalleled living experience.”
The home is a rare historical, freehold mansion located in Mayfair, London. With a rich history as the former residence of politicians and celebrities, this rare mansion, designed by two acclaimed architects, Detmar Blow in 1902 and Nicholas Rakic for the wellness center, has had only three owners, including renowned writer Dame Barbara Cartland who was the mother of Countess Raine Spencer, the stepmother of Lady Diana Spencer (later Diana, Princess of Wales).
