“Situated in the heart of central London, across from one of the country’s most exclusive private members club, this apartment would make the perfect pied-a-terre or home for young professionals looking for a blend of comfort and luxury.”
The home has undergone an extensive renovation by leading prime development specialists VOZA Developments. The apartment, which is located on a prominent corner of the newly transformed Halkin Street, has been altered internally to provide fantastic lateral living, whist retaining the character and original features of the Georgian building

To capture the chic style, the apartment on Halkin Street has been dressed with bespoke furniture, which has been designed and crafted by the VOZA’s design studio to enhance each space and provide a unique feel to the apartment. Key items include a hand-made timber Console and Dining Table, feature lighting, as well as antique chairs and stools within the bedroom and living spaces.
Alex Pope, Partner atVOZA, said: “Our USP at VOZA is to create wonderful living spaces that each have an individual character whilst retaining their existing architectural charm.
