London in bloom: homes for sale with beautiful gardens
From lush landscaped gardens to elegant al fresco spaces, these homes offer privacy, beauty, and tranquility in the heart of the capital
As the RHS Chelsea Flower Show returns to London, the city seems to burst into bloom, with spring sunshine casting a spotlight on its many green spaces. But it’s not just the professionals putting on a show - some of the capital’s most stunning gardens can be found tucked behind private homes. From immaculate lawns to artfully curated planting, we take a look at some of the most beautiful gardens gracing properties currently on the market.
6 bedroom house in Greville Place, St John's Wood, London, NW6. Guide price £8,850,000
Dating back to circa 1810, this lateral house, believed to be one of the earliest of its kind in the St John’s Wood area, is remarkable in every sense. Its outdoor spaces are particularly special, from the impeccably landscaped rear garden to the whimsical greenery at the front, which creates a welcoming first impression. The interior is equally captivating, lovingly restored and filled with characterful touches waiting to be discovered around every corner.
5-6 bedroom house in Addison Avenue, Holland Park, London, W11. Guide price £11,500,000
This majestic Grade II-listed family home sits on a sought-after, tree-lined street in Holland Park. Unusually for the area, it benefits from a substantial 56-foot west-facing garden, immaculately landscaped to create zones for both al fresco dining and quiet reflection. The kitchen opens directly onto the garden, offering a seamless connection to the outside, while verdant views can also be enjoyed from the balcony terrace on the raised ground floor, including steps down for access. This level also hosts a formal reception room and an elegant dining room, both resplendent with period features.
5 bedroom house in Chevening Road, London, NW6. Guide price £4,000,000
While “indoor-outdoor living” may be a buzzword, this spectacular home on one of Queen’s Park’s most sought-after streets truly embodies the concept, seamlessly blending interior design with its natural surroundings. The secluded garden evokes the charm of a classic English country retreat, brimming with roses, herbaceous borders, and mature trees. One of the most enchanting views is from the orangery, which opens onto a private balcony, a peaceful spot for a quiet morning coffee.
