Old meets new

Located in the historic St John’s Wood Conservation Area, works at this property on the prestigious Marlborough Place included the complete renovation and enlargement of a substantial Grade II Listed property.

Knowles delivered the project from concept to completion, with works including a new 2500 sq/ft basement, which featured a truly unique swimming pool, spa, sauna gym, as well as additional accommodation and a wine cellar.

The property featured historical features from the original house, which were sympathetically maintained and restored, with a conscious design decision to use traditional materials in the newly added basement to ensure a seamless continuation of style with the rest of the house. Natural light was gained in the basement through the design of roof lights and light wells.
