LUXURY HOMES
81 one of London’ s most prestigious postcodes, 36 & 37 Hertford Street Residences presents a rare opportunity to own one of the area’ s last remaining freehold sites.
Once a patchwork of fields nestled between Oxford Street and Park Lane, over the centuries, Mayfair has evolved into the epitome of London prestige. Now, on the storied site believed to be Mayfair’ s very first home- where shepherds tendered their flocks as the Tyburn stream meandered nearby- 36 & 37 Hertford Street Residences breathes new life into this historic enclave. Spanning two architecturally significant buildings- one a meticulously restored Grade II listed Georgian townhouse, and the other a post-war reconstruction reimagined in classical style- the residential development honours the legacy of prominent 18th century architects including Henry Holland and Robert Adam. Reimagined by award-winning architecture practice Buckley Gray Yeoman, the pair of buildings embody the architectural rhythm of Mayfair’ s past, infused with presentday refinement. Situated behind the façade of the listed townhouse, the A. LONDON-designed twobedroom, 1,098 sq. ft home strikes a considered balance between historic character, the intimacy of a private residence, and the elegance of a boutique hotel suite.
Mayfair’ s coveted property market dates back to the 18th century, when aristocrats competed for the original mansions of Mayfair. This rich heritage inspired A. LONDON’ s apartment design, creating a refined yet restful sanctuary that rises above the vibrant buzz of Hertford Street. Offering rare dual-aspect views towards Green Park and Hyde Park, the apartment is bathed in natural light that streams in through original windows with charming juliette balconies. Impressive 3.1 metre ceiling heights enhance the feeling of space and grandeur, while sculptural lighting introduces a sense of movement and rhythm, complementing original features like elegant cornicing, a ceiling rose and an original fireplace. A carefully curated layering of materials- velvets, honed marbles, antique brass, and linen- creates an environment that is both tactile and considered, inspired by the textual storytelling of Mayfair’ s local members’ clubs, luxury retail and Michelin starred restaurants.
Named after the annual May Fair, historically held in Shepherd Market, Mayfair has long been synonymous with celebration and prestige- while Shepherd Market itself retains a distinctive bohemian charm. Just steps away, within 36 & 37 Hertford Street Residences, the apartment designed by A. LONDON draws inspiration from the neighbourhood’ s signature blend of understated luxury and
