Macklin House, 1-7 Macklin Street, WC2B

Tucked away in the very heart of the West End, moments from Covent Garden and the theatres of West End, Macklin House is a rare and atmospheric duplex set within a handsome red-brick mansion block once forming part of Sir Cameron Mackintosh’s theatre costume warehouses.

Arranged over the ground and lower ground floors, this exceptional one/two-bedroom residence offers impressive ceiling heights, excellent natural light and nearly 1,300 ft² of beautifully configured living space. A striking glass-framed staircase connects the levels, while generous reception and dining areas create a wonderful sense of openness and flow — ideal for entertaining or refined everyday living.

At its heart lies a private courtyard garden, lush and tranquil, accessed via patio doors — an unexpected sanctuary in WC2. Two bathrooms, a separate study area, excellent storage and a well-appointed kitchen complete the accommodation.

With a share of freehold and approximately 971 years remaining on the lease, this is a secure and characterful central London home — a discreet retreat amid the vibrancy of the capital’s most celebrated neighbourhood.
