The house has a rich history, with many notable inhabitants, including The Earl Grey. More recently, the Berry family had the wine cellar installed.
This house retains a wonderfully rich sense of that history, whilst benefiting from some alterations to the layout that predate the listing. A quick glance at the room arrangement will confirm this a very comfortable house in which to live in the 21st century, and one which would be impossible to create again.
Historical Note:
Old Chelsea has been called A Village of Palaces. This terrace was built in 1708 on the bowling green of The Three Tuns public house, which had previously been an orchard within the grounds of Shrewsbury House in Tudor times. These Queen Anne houses have been the homes of many eminent people, including Victorian historian Thomas Carlyle, whose house, next door, is now owned and managed by The National Trust.
