In London’s golden postcode of SW1, where embassies line leafy boulevards and some of the world’s most powerful people call home, rarely does a property with both stature and soul come to market.


But tucked away on Chapel Street, just moments from the hallowed grounds of Belgrave Square, a rare six-floor freehold townhouse is being offered by United Kingdom Sotheby’s International Realty—and it is the very definition of discreet luxury.


Priced at £9,500,000, this end-of-terrace home is a masterclass in elegant proportion, practical family living, and classical grandeur. A sanctuary in one of the capital’s most exclusive enclaves, the property combines quintessential Belgravia architecture with the comforts of modern luxury living, from air conditioning and centralised heating to a home sauna and private garden terrace.



A Family Home with Grandeur


What sets this townhouse apart is its rare ability to blend scale with serenity. Spanning over six floors, the house offers six generous bedrooms, including a spectacular principal suite that takes up the entire second floor. With its own Jacuzzi bathroom, lounge space, and vast windows, the suite offers a private escape akin to the penthouse of a five-star hotel.


On the third floor, you’ll find another bedroom suite with a dedicated walk-in wardrobe—ideal for a fashion-forward teenager or as a private guest wing.


Two further bedroom suites occupy the fourth floor, each flooded with light and finished in a timeless, neutral palette.


But this isn’t just a house to sleep in—it’s a house made for living. Three beautifully appointed reception rooms span the first three floors, some with private balconies overlooking quiet mews and manicured gardens, offering the perfect setting for everything from champagne soirées to intimate family gatherings.



Living Across Six Floors


The ground floor kitchen is both functional and welcoming. Large enough to accommodate a full dining suite, it opens out onto a rear balcony perfect for al fresco breakfasts.


Meanwhile, the lower ground floor reveals a hidden gem: not only is there a second kitchen—ideal for staff or seamless entertaining—but also a sauna, utility space, cloakroom, and an ensuite bedroom with private patio access. Whether used for live-in help, extended family, or guests who value privacy, this level is entirely self-contained.


At the very top of the house, a peaceful study opens directly onto the terrace, offering a rare moment of quiet and inspiration in the heart of the city. It’s easy to imagine this room being used to pen a novel, take Zoom calls in peace, or simply sip espresso as the morning light floods the space.



Belgravia: London's Most Prestigious Village


Located just a short walk from the boutiques of Motcomb Street, Hyde Park’s green expanses, and the elite private members’ clubs of Mayfair, Chapel Street enjoys the rare duality of discretion and proximity. Belgravia’s garden squares, historic architecture, and diplomatic air make it one of the few places in the world where privacy and prestige go hand in hand.


This property’s freehold status only adds to its desirability—a prized rarity in central London, where most homes are leasehold and subject to restrictive terms. For families seeking a long-term London base or international buyers desiring a turnkey pied-à-terre with soul, this is a purchase that balances emotional appeal with intelligent investment.


In a market increasingly crowded with flashy new builds and glass-box penthouses, this six-floor townhouse is a reminder of what timeless London luxury truly looks like.


It’s not just about square footage or postcode—it’s about how a home feels. And this one feels like your own private Belgravia estate.
