Got a spare £390,000 lying around for a year’s rent in upmarket Mayfair? Us neither, but we can dream.
On the market at £7,500 per week, this stunning apartment is true fantasy fodder, comprising three bedrooms, three bathrooms and high-class decor to match its sky-high price tag.
Located on Charles Street, one of London’s smartest residential enclaves just moments from Berkeley Square, the classic Georgian building (spanning 2,292 square feet) boasts an enviable W1 postcode.
The inside of the home – to let fully furnished with Mayfair property specialists Wetherell for a £32,500 a month – is just as swish, having recently undergone an extravagant makeover costing hundreds of thousands of pounds.
Armani fabrics, handblown Murano glass chandeliers and Czech Lasvit lighting installations are standout features, with equal attention given to smaller detailslike bespoke mother-of-pearl wallpaper in the principal bedroom suite and gold-stamped Lalique crystal taps in the cloakroom.
Seamless state-of-the-art tech has also been added: a Crestron home automation system to control the window blinds, air-conditioning and TV screens from the touch of an iPad, and immersible, invisible Amina speakers to fill the home with sound.
The flat, situated on the ground-floor of the bow-fronted townhouse, is accessible via a portered lobby leading into a private hallways bedecked with marble tiles.
Head through to the living room and you’ll notice three-metre high ceilings, an Italian marble art-deco inspired fireplace, pale engineered wooden flooring and a triple row of huge sash windows.
This space can be kept as a distinct separate room or given an open-plan twistthanks to a discreet dark wood sliding screen that connects onto the kitchen and dining area.

It enjoys a marble ensuite bathroom too, plus a dressing room with dedicated areas for shoe, handbag and jewellery storage, and full-height mirroring.
There are two more ensuite bedrooms in the property, as well as a study/family room with a built-in desk area and a utility room with a sink and built-in units.

Famous past inhabitants of Charles Street include art critic John Ruskin and Josiah Wedgwood, while the nearby Footman pub is thought to have been the inspiration for the Junior Ganymede Club in P.G. Wodehouse’s Jeeves stories.
