Step inside this week’s breathtakingly unusual home, a detached manor house in Regents Bridge Gardens, Vauxhall with an asking price of £12,000,000  
June 09, 2020

Located on the south side of the River Thames, this spectacular seven-bedroom property sits within the exclusive gated development of Regents Bridge Gardens, the site of the former Beaufoy Vinegar Distillery, which dates back to the early 19th century when Vauxhall was at its industrial peak. 

With plenty of cafes, riverside restaurants and shops nearby, the property is surrounded by London’s central buzz, while the city’s famous riverside serenity provides the perfect relaxing antidote. Just 10 minutes from Vauxhall Station, the property neighbours the transformation underway in Nine Elms, offering residents the perfect combination of London's slick modernity and classical history. 

Vauxhall itself has developed a trendy and thriving reputation, especially since British icon Damien Hirst opened Newport Street Gallery, kickstarting a fresh art scene. This, on top of Vauxhall’s proximity to Tate Britain and Waterloo’s bustling theatre destination, makes the area well-connected to some of London's cultural hot spots. 

If Vauxhall sounds appealing, then take a look at this rather unusual home in the heart of it.  

About the property

24 Caron Place has the rare ability to make you feel as though you're in a country manor house in the heart of the Cotswolds rather than the centre of London. Elegant and full of surprises, the property's sympathetic restoration nods to the building's past – a connection to the area's industrial heritage.

Flooded with natural light and views of the manicured gardens, this home is a light and airy paradise. Calm, earthy tones throughout help to create a sense of tranquillity – your own hidden oasis in the heart of the city.

The beautiful gardens have been designed by award-winning landscape designer Anthony Paul and include water features, sculptures, a lily pond, a children’s play area and a garden full of herbs and fruit trees. Not only is it rare to have this much private outdoor space in London, but the careful design and landscaping will transport you straight to a country farmhouse garden – what better way to unwind after a day exploring the city?

The home features Italian marble, granite and onyx, with the principal rooms on the ground floor boasting a beautiful oak Artwood flooring with brass inlays. This detail – combined with period style bathroom fittings and a dark wood kitchen – add to the home’s palpable sense of luxury.

This historic British property also celebrates the very best of British artisan craft through its interiors, with all bedrooms fitted with furniture by iconic designer Clive Christian, evoking a calm, classic style.  

One of the most breath-taking and unusual features of the property is its grand reception room, with a mezzanine-level library and double-height ceiling, perfect for residents to show off their impressive literary collection.

The first floor has an opulent master suite, with two dressing rooms, a media room, study and a luxurious en-suite – complete with a glass sauna.

The property also includes an original gatehouse with a separate entrance, which comprises two bedrooms, a kitchen and reception room – the perfect guest house. 

Another benefit of the property's position in Regents Bridge Gardens is the residents-only access to the communal swimming pool and fully equipped gym.
