PICTURE THIS

Well chosen and minimally dressed modern fireplaces can harmonise spaces, as the living room of this exceptional six bedroom new build townhouse on Chesterfield Hill, Mayfair shows. Set behind a restored, original façade, this property has been meticulously refurbished.

There’s a reason why the owners of prime central properties have long hung fine art above the fireplace – it just works. This charming Georgian home in Victoria Square was recently sold by Dexters. To find out about similar properties currently available, get in touch.
