Description
Rare Covent Garden maisonette off Seven Dials
The leasehold house is divided over three floors, only metres from the Seven Dials Column, sculpted by renowned English stonemason, Edward Peirce. The street front door opens to a cosy entrance hall which can comfortably accommodate coats, shoes, and if wanted, a bicycle. From the entrance hall, short flights of turning stairs lead to each upper floor and reveal the building's industrial brewing heritage.
On the first floor, a fully fitted open-plan kitchen / dining / sitting room has shaker-style wall and base cabinets, containing integrated Neff and Bosch appliances as to be expected. This hand-built timber kitchen by John Lewis of Hungerford sits nicely against the Juncker hardwood timber plank flooring. Two large double glazed windows hint at the building's past. The room has tall, circa 3m, ceiling heights in the principal reception with period features such as cornicing retained, in addition to Victorian style cast iron radiators. The raised windows are elevated away from street level with double glazing to ensure a quiet ambient atmosphere.
The turning staircase continues to the second-floor principal bedroom suite, with en suite bathroom and dressing area with fitted wardrobes. The bathroom was completely renovated in 2021, including new shower unit. The principal bedroom is fitted with built-in wardrobes and deep sill windows. The staircase continues up to the third floor landing and guest double bedroom en suite, currently used as a home office. There are further wardrobes fitted on an adjoining raised landing. The staircase continues to a fire exit with second external access away from the building in case of emergency.
The door to this area creates a superb vantage point to see fly-pasts of national celebration overhead en route to the Strand and Buckingham Palace. In all a very well presented West End home.
