This exquisite two-bedroomed London home is in the centre of London’s creative heart. Welcoming up to four guests, John’s Mews is a light, bright, and tranquil retreat in Holborn, close to the fashionable neighbourhood of Clerkenwell to the north and Covent Garden to the south. With a contemporary interior that’s distinctly design-led, John’s Mews is an inspiring home filled with personal touches.
This area of London is steeped in history. Wander down Clerkenwell Road, and you’ll discover map shops that have been there for centuries, horologists selling exquisite clocks and barometers, and even dedicated telescope shops – not to mention the delights of the British Museum. However, like much of the capital, Holborn is constantly evolving, and today is also home to Michelin-starred restaurants, the charms of Exmouth Market, wine bars, boutiques and galleries. Spend an afternoon browsing the iconic Jewellery Quarter of Hatton Garden, or while away the evening at the opera at Covent Garden. From churches that survived the Great Fire of London in 1666 to the most modern apartments and chic cafés, Holborn is home to some of London’s best-kept secrets.
Located on the second floor of an exclusive residential block, you walk into an open-plan layout where the living space is refined and filled with a unique display of framed theatre programmes. Plush furnishings and a large flat-screened TV are perfectly positioned for cosy movie nights. The dining room features a bespoke glass table and a striking classical marble horse and rider frieze watches down over you. The kitchen is sleekly designed with neutral tones and marble counters.
The primary bedroom has a roomy and comfortable king-size bed and a smart ensuite with unique wood panelling, while the second bedroom features a cosy double bed with a family bathroom across the hall. On warm summer evenings, you can step outside onto a private balcony and sip a glass of wine as the sun sinks over the London skyline. John’s Mews is a gem hidden in the centre of one of London’s most fascinating and eclectic areas, where cobbled streets meet ultra-chic galleries.
