About this property

Recently and classically refurbished, grade II listed, 18th century end of terrace town house on the peaceful Craven Street, located seconds from the River Thames and the Strand.

Where history meets the river.

Standing on one of London's most architecturally intact Georgian streets, No. 25 Craven Street is not merely a house — it is a witness. Built in 1791 and Grade II listed, this exceptional freehold townhouse of 4,371 sq ft commands views across the River Thames, the London Eye from its extraordinary private roof terrace. It is a home of genuine rarity: a blue plaque house whose walls carry the memory of literary greatness, offered now for the first time in a generation.
