About this property

Discreetly positioned on one of Bloomsbury’s most distinguished streets, this exceptional Georgian maisonette offers rare lateral living across two generous floors. Accessed via a private entrance on John Street, the property extends to approximately 3,600 sq ft and has been cleverly refurbished to balance modern convinces with its period origins. Tall sash windows with original shutters draw light deep into the rooms, while elegant cornicing, marble fireplaces and beautifully thought-out proportions lend the home a quiet grandeur. The recent renovation has been handled with restraint, allowing these historic details to sit naturally alongside contemporary finishes and discreet technology.

The agent hasn't said which band this home is in; you can look it up on GOV.UK. In Camden, 2026/27 bills run from £1,472 a year in band A to £4,415 in band H.

Figures from MHCLG (Open Government Licence v3): the average bill for each band across Camden, including the typical parish precept, so a parish's own bill can differ a little. Discounts lower the bill, such as 25% off for an adult living alone.
