The Penthouse - Hodson Developments

The Penthouse
PARK LANE LONDON W1
The Penthouse
55
PARK LANE
LONDON
W1
Park Lane has been London’s
most fashionable residential
address since the Eighteenth
Century and reached the
zenith of its social status
when the London version
of the Monopoly board
was first produced in 1936.
This is still the case today,
with 55 Park Lane being
among the most prized of
Park Lane’s many jewels.
The building is everything
that the discerning buyer will
expect, offering easy access
to the heart of Mayfair via
the impressive entrance
to Park Lane leading to a
reception area, where the
friendly porters and 24 hour
concierge service are based.
The Penthouse apartment
dominates the tenth floor
of the building and affords
magnificent panoramic
views across the London
skyline, taking in all the
major city landmarks –
breathtaking by day and
perhaps even more so by
night – affording peace
and vistas such as this,
the Penthouse is not
just a place in which to
live – it’s a place in which
to live one’s dreams.
Offering four en suite
bedrooms plus grand
entertaining spaces
extending to over 3,400
sq ft and with a further
1,475 sq ft of terraces, this
comfortable apartment has
recently been refurbished
in a clean contemporary
style with white marble
flooring and tranquil
finishes setting the theme
throughout the property.
Outside the terraces are
landscaped and there is
a running water feature
adding to the relaxing
ambience of this property.
This stunning Penthouse
will be a real “Trophy”
asset and will afford its
new owners a quality of
life that will be hard to
surpass at any price level.
