South Audley St Apartment – Flat 1, 70 South Audley Street is a contemporary luxe 2,355 square foot apartment on one of the most fashionable streets in the heart of Mayfair. Located on a period feature enriched terracotta Victorian building emblematic of the zone, this apartment is accessed by a lift or stairs and opens into a large high ceiling entrance with an elegant monochrome Art Deco patterned stone flooring.
The specification of every area of the property is of the highest quality, with each element bespoke designed by international interior design practice, Shalini Misra Ltd, drawing from their wide portfolio of high-end residential projects.
The design of this interior respects original features, with fireplaces and cornices retained, and has been updated to the comforts of modern life with air conditioning and underfloor heating throughout. State of the art lighting on a Lutron system has been designed with layering of lighting for various moods and times of day.
The space comprises a double reception room, incorporating the formal dining area, a kitchen with dining, utility room, staff bathroom, an extended master bedroom suite with a walk-in wardrobe, study area and a large bathroom. There are three further bedrooms, one of which can be used as a study, and two bathrooms (one en-suite). All rooms have a striking 3-metre-high ceiling height.
The kitchen is stunning and functional with ample space for dining and preparation. The appliances, from Gaggenau and Miele, include the latest technology and are finished to the highest luxe specifications with a warm oak wood veneer, calacutta stone and bronze accents.
The flooring in the living areas is solid rich dark oak in a sleek chevron pattern combining beautifully with the marble and stone of the entrance, kitchen and bathrooms. Each bathroom is carefully designed independently of each other with a seamless blend of textures and palettes.
The master bathroom mixes white calacutta marble set off with dark grey stone. The double basin vanity unit is designed with two illuminated mirrors suspended in bronze frames creating sleek sophistication. The wardrobes are strikingly finished in warm soft velvet accented by bronze handles.
The two additional bedrooms have a unique character. One has a timber finished walk-in wardrobe and large window stretching across an entire wall bringing ample natural light into the room. The third bedroom has a king size bed, study area and bronze trimmed wardrobes with velvet doors creating a soft and elegant look.
Shalini Misra Ltd is renowned for attention to detail and this carries through to the powder loo, with a mix of stone and leather clad drawers, and the two bathrooms with contrasting mosaic, fluted dark timber and stone surfaces.
