C A R LT O N HOUSE —
The Bishops Avenue London N2
–1–
Introduction —
Carlton House is a fine example of the imposing mansions located on the prestigious The Bishop’s Avenue – one of London’s most exclusive residential addresses. Situated in leafy Hampstead, the area is renowned for its historic parks and woodland but still offers excellent proximity to London’s financial district. The property is approached via a sweeping driveway allowing visitors the opportunity to fully appreciate the immense scale and quality of this impressive mansion. The understated architecture of the frontage gives little indication of the luxury and opulence that lies within, including 7 bedrooms all with lavish marble en-suite bathrooms, an indoor leisure and swimming pool complex and an even indulgent 10-person Turkish bath.

An impressive entrance hall with sweeping marble and wrought iron staircase welcomes visitors to Carlton House. A series of magnificent reception rooms lead off from the hall including a sitting room, 50ft drawing room/ballroom, a family room, a private study and a dining room offering unlimited potential for grand entertaining.

An electronic food lift connects the sophisticated catering kitchen in the lower ground floor with the smaller family kitchen above ensuring food always arrives hot and on time whether intended for an intimate gathering or elegant social occasion. The main reception rooms have bespoke panelled ceilings with intricately designed crystal chandeliers, the walls are covered in tactile silk paper and the solid oak inlaid parquet floors exude a feeling of warmth. Windows are framed with triple-lined sculpted curtains with electronically controlled blinds. There is also a sophisticated electronically controlled system for climate and light settings, which allows temperature regulation and adjustable mood lighting. A centrally controlled stereo function pipes music into key rooms within property.

The cherry wood lined passenger lift escorts visitors to the upstairs floors and the collection of 7 bedrooms, all with en-suite marble bathrooms. A circular gallery is the focal point of the first floor, allowing an aerial view of the entrance hall below as well as providing access to 5 of the bedrooms. The stunning master bedroom suite includes a ‘his n hers’ walk in wardrobe, sitting room and a solid marble panelled bathroom with a centrally positioned round Jacuzzi bath.

Plasma television screens are discreetly integrated in both the bathroom and within a custom-made consul in the bedroom. The master suite enjoys private access to a terrace overlooking the manicured gardens below as well as access to a further terrace which is shared with one other bedroom. The second floor is home to the two remaining bedrooms, both impressively large spaces and each with access to a private circular sitting room leading onto a front facing terrace.
