Regent’s Park and Regency architect John Nash have a long and close association.
Although his most famous buildings are Buckingham Palace and the Brighton Pavilion, his building scheme for the West End of London endures and gives the area around Regent’s Park its iconic appearance.
The cream stucco properties have long been popular with British and overseas buyers but a recent raft of high-profile property developers, ambassadors and oligarchs moving in has raised the area’s profile to glittering heights.
Anyone who buys one of our selected properties will be able to count Damien Hirst, the US ambassador, Qatar’s former first lady and developer Christian Candy as neighbours.
