Marylebone

Marylebone was laid out in the eighteenth century and still reads as a plan: squares, mews behind the terraces, a high street that serves the people who live on it. The brick is a calm yellow-grey and the proportions do a lot of the work.

Apartments here are often conversions of larger houses, which means tall ceilings and generous windows set into modest floor areas. The appeal is in the walkability and in the quiet that sits a block away from Oxford Street.
