MILLBANK HERITAGE APARTMENT

With a spectacular view of the Thames and breath-taking original details, this Grade II-listed apartment in the historical Millbank district has been transformed into a majestic central London home. Years of planning have resulted in a wonderful open-plan living space set against floor-to-celling windows, with original features of walnut panelling, parquet herringbone flooring and carved door frames retained. This duplex features a 43ft colonnade terrace, and delicately moulded plasterwork on the 17ft ceilings. These all form the backdrop for the work from some of Britain’s finest ateliers – sculptural chandeliers in hand-blown crystal and patinated bronze, hand-embroidered drapes adorn the four-poster bed and silk wallpaper, whose delicate beaded feathers reference the peacock motif on the building’s exterior façade.
