Buying in Marylebone
Marylebone may be in the heart of Central London but it is known for being a tranquil neighbourhood with a village atmosphere. Marylebone High Street has plenty of local eateries and boutiques, while Regent’s Park and Hyde Park are but a stone’s throw away. This prosperous urban ‘village’ is highly sought after on account of its Georgian squares, Victorian terraces and mansion blocks. There are some stunning mews houses as well as new developments that have been designed with luxury living in mind.
According to one local estate agents, Marylebone “mixes beautiful period architecture with stunning new developments. The new homes market in Marylebone has developed since 2011, with the ultra prime luxury sector emerging over the last 2 years. This has enabled Marylebone to outperform both Mayfair and the rest of prime Central London.”
Marylebone’s overall average property price is an ambitious £1,901,305, more expensive than nearby Regent’s Park, with most properties sold last year being apartments.

- You are buying a period property or listed building

- The original structure has been significantly altered, or you are planning major refurbishments
- You are aware of existing building defects such as timber defects or damp
