Connaught Place

This exclusive small development of just six lateral residences overlooking Hyde Park has opulent hand

crafted interiors complete with concierge services and offers a unique freehold acquisition opportunity.

Originally built in the early 19th century as a magnificent terrace of town houses that were influenced by

the Georgian and Regency periods, Connaught Place now forms part of a conservation area

and is protected by a Grade II listing.

The brickwork arches, stucco façades, wrought iron verandas and Doric columned porticos allude to an

eminent history, yet the dignity of the architecture maintains its relevance today.

From London’s historic and cultural heart, this prime property has been restored to its former splendour and

re-emerges for a distinguished debut. We are delighted to present Connaught Place, winner of the

Best Residential Renovation at the 2014 UK Property Awards.

The Mayfair Residence

The original ‘May Fair’ was established by James II in the 17th century, a riotous fifteen-day

festival centred on Shepherd Market in the very heart of Mayfair.

In absolute contrast, today’s Mayfair is one of the world’s most fashionable districts, a name

synonymous with luxury and culture. This area of London is home to high society and big

business, to art and music, to entrepreneurs and diplomats.

The Mayfair Residence exemplifies the diversity and sophistication, the character and contrasts

of the present day Mayfair. The spirit of this fascinating and exclusive district is skilfully

captured with an opulence and splendour that almost defies description.

The Mayfair ResidenceThe high ceilings and impressive proportions of the reception areas and a state-of-the-art media room on the upper level combine to create a highly distinguished apartment.

Located on the first floor with a mezzanine overlooking the grand entrance hall, this four bedroom residence will provide a home of magnitude and magnificence.

Principal Rooms

- Dining &

Reception

A neutral yet contrasting colour palette emphasises the elegance and grandeur of the reception and dining areas which

form the focal point of the sumptuous Mayfair Residence.

The high ceilings reflect the impressive scale with decorative cornices and traditional wall panelling offsetting the dark

oak floor. Full height windows that effortlessly capture the natural light open onto south-facing balconies with a verdant

outlook towards Hyde Park.

The adjoining home office adds a contemporary edge with sedate panelling and muted lighting that creates a practical

and calming space.

Principal Rooms

- Kitchen

Accessed either from the main hall or through double doors

from the dining room, the crisp, clean lines of the kitchen are

contemporary though conform to the traditional Regency theme.

There are bespoke, hand-crafted kitchens from Robert Timmons

with integrated Gaggenau appliances. Polished stone worktops and

floors have been selected for their sophisticated yet effortless style.

Principal Rooms

- Media Room

Approached from the impressive pale gold timber double-height entrance

hall via the dramatic feature staircase and mezzanine landing, the media

room offers quiet seclusion away from the more formal rooms of the

Mayfair Residence.

This is a more contemporary and relaxed space with pale panelled walls

that contrast with the dark oak floor. The lighting is gently discreet and

natural light is also permitted through a window that overlooks the kitchen.

Needless to say, the media room provides the perfect business or

entertainment environment and is fully equipped with smart, future-

proofed wiring and data cabling.

The Bedroom Suites

- Master Bedroom

The Bedroom SuitesThe scale of the master bedroom is overwhelming; the richness

of colour and texture is characterised by a magnificent feature

headboard that balances beautifully with a polished oak floor

surround and luxury oyster carpet.

The master bedroom provides exceptional space with supreme

comfort. The high ceilings emphasise the grandeur, whilst the rich

timber finish of the entranceway and adjoining dressing room act

to define the margins of this impressive sanctuary.

The Bedroom Suites

- Master Ensuite &

Dressing Room

A generous, walk-in dressing room provides a darker contrast to the creamy tones of the bedroom, the classic,

custom fitted units are enriched with bronze detailing.

The master ensuite embraces neutral and natural materials with cream and grey stone offsetting the dark oak

units and polished bronze accents. A freestanding bath provides the dramatic visual centrepiece of this opulent

yet eminently functional room.

The Bedroom Suites

- Guest Suites Tw

o & Three

The muted tones of the second and third guest suites create a calm and

welcoming ambience, the rich ivory carpet and off-white walls integrate with

the smooth finish of the custom fitted wardrobes.

The neutral palette continues through to the ensuites creating a feeling of

space and light with cream stone floors, a dark oak vanity unit and elegant

and stylish fixtures that both contrast and complement.

The Bedroom Suites

- Guest Suite Four

Accessed from the first floor and with its own private mezzanine, the fourth guest suite is tucked away in a

separate quarter so would be ideal for guests requiring an exceptional level of privacy.

With its dedicated ensuite facilities and unique arrangement, the fourth guest suite could also be utilised as

live-in space for a house-keeper or an au pair and would be perfect for a teenager who is seeking an increased

level of independence.

Design without compromiseThe Mayfair ResidenceInterior design and architectural specialists, 1508 London, have been appointed to create the magnificent and

inspirational interiors at Connaught Place. Their skills range from developing some of London’s most unique

properties, creating imaginative interiors for luxury developments, flawlessly integrating the old and new in

architectural refurbishments to commissioning bespoke furniture and contemporary art.

The rich Regency heritage has influenced the key design approach in the choice of materials, the generous

spatial arrangements, the preservation of high ceilings and retention of period details. The introduction of

contemporary features is sensitively balanced within the classic context to give rise to interiors that are both

glamorous and refined.

1508 London have designed some of the most distinguished and sumptuous homes currently available in

central London.

Innovation by appointment

Technical Systems

Name-checked by recording artists and filmmakers the world over for three decades, Harris

Grant has transformed the way sound and pictures are captured and perfectly reproduced.

Under the direction of acoustician Neil Grant, this acclaimed design practice has created

an impressive portfolio of extraordinary audiovisual environments for discerning clients in

Europe, North America and the Far East.

The roots of Harris Grant lie firmly in the music and motion picture industries. In 1986,

Grammy Award winning composer and performer Peter Gabriel engaged Harris Grant to

oversee the architectural, acoustic and technical design of Real World Studios in the west of

England. The birthplace of countless hit records, this audaciously-designed complex remains

one of the world’s iconic music recording spaces. Since then, Neil has fine-tuned the sound

of studios, film dubbing suites and concert halls on both sides of the Atlantic. And it ’s no

surprise that many of his commercial clients also engage Neil to oversee their own home

entertainment and IT systems.

Building on this internationally renowned professional audio heritage, Harris Grant today

brings the same spirit of excellence to discerning residential clients. From home cinemas

to the world’s most opulent super-yachts, every project by Neil Grant fuses state-of-the-art

technologies and materials with an innate sense of luxury and craftsmanship.

Redrow commissioned Harris Grant to specify and design technical systems for the Mayfair

Residence at Connaught Place that would reflect and support the aspirations of its elite

clientele. This brief was addressed with a state-of the-art installation spanning media,

networking, telephony and IT systems plus building management and access.

Networked control of lights, heating, blinds and other ambient systems is orchestrated by

a powerful Gira HomeServer. Whether you’re entertaining guests for an intimate dinner or

simply relaxing, everything’s under instant fingertip control from your iPhone or iPad.

There’s a wealth of options to experience your favourite entertainment, from movies and

Sky HD television to games, music and more. The large 65” Samsung Ultra-High Definition

4K display provides an impressive focal point in the main reception room, supplemented by

further 4K televisions in all three bedrooms.

Your digital collection of movies, videos and music can be streamed from the award-winning

Kaleidescape media server that offers plenty of space to store the most dedicated film-lover’s

collection. Control playback from your mobile – even stream content from an iPhone or iPad

to enjoy on TV.

Whether you’re listening to digital radio or background music, discreetly concealed

loudspeakers by Linn provide audiophile-grade sound throughout every room of the property.

World-leading acoustician and studio designer Neil Grant has added his unique creative signature to the audio visual, IT and control systems in The Mayfair Residence at Connaught Place.

The Finishesat Connaught PlaceEach of the residences at Connaught Place is exquisitely individual.

Kitchens and bathrooms, walls and floors have been perfected

using a palette of the finest materials available. Limestone, timber,

granite and Italian marble were sourced and sampled from

international suppliers; only those that met our stringent quality

standards were selected.

A range of the finishes chosen and commissioned for Connaught

Place is shown. Due to the natural patina of the stone and marble

and the subtle variations in wood graining, each residence is

bespoke, unique and utterly exclusive.

In the world of high profile luxury developments, a concierge service is now regarded as an absolute necessity. In this important area, Harrods Estates Asset

Management is leading the way through knowledge, experience and with all the resources of Harrods retail at our disposal.

The aim is to put in place a hotel-style facility, which will assist residents in every way. Our concierges are highly trained, professional, discreet and trustworthy, and

furthermore can call upon all the resources of Harrods for the ‘Front Desk’.

Food, flowers, gifts and personal items can be delivered at short notice, selected from Harrods’ finest ranges. The concierge can arrange a rental car, a chauffeured

limousine, even a private helicopter. More prosaically, the concierge will undertake such tasks as receiving deliveries and tradespeople, greeting, screening and

escorting visitors, making restaurant reservations, arranging maid service, booking travel or events, or simply walking the dog.

No task too small, no request too extraordinary.

Beautiful and innovative contemporary design, unrivalled craftsmanship, and the highest standards of customer care are what set

us apart.

Established as a premium developer some 40 years ago, the heritage of master building, innovation and design have been brought

to bear on developing exceptional London homes.

We are part of an ambitious FTSE 250 company with a well-earned reputation for building outstanding homes around the country.

which have received prestigious awards and high praise from industry experts and residents alike.
