Trade Court

Architectural character and residential format

21 Passmore Street is a residential boutique development situated in the heart of one of London's oldest and architecturally affluent districts, Belgravia. The estate comprises a one freehold household laid out over two floors that has been meticulously restored and remodelled for modern living, yet still retaining its original identity. Built in 1860, the building was refurbished in its entirety and was finished to a very high standard throughout by 2022.

The finished project is a two-bedroom home with roughly 1,000 square feet of interior space. Inside, the design has been made to optimise natural light and space flow with a front-to-back living room that promotes an open feel on both floors. This low-density form separates the home from large multi-unit developments and provides privacy, with no loss of local neighbourhood identity within a densely populated urban streetscape.

Location, connectivity, and urban context

Situated at 21 Passmore Street, London SW1W 8HR, it enjoys a prestigious Belgravia address in Zone 1. The local context is defined by period architecture, tree-lined streets, and close proximity to some of London’s finest residential neighbourhoods, such as Chelsea and Knightsbridge. Sloane Square Underground is a few minutes’ walk away to provide access to the rest of the capital.

The local infrastructure is well-developed, and cafes, restaurants, shops, and cultural facilities are integrated into the direct environment. Resident setting is completed by green spaces, including Chelsea Physic Garden and nearby riverside walks. Complemented by a map of the local area, it demonstrates excellent access to transport, education, and leisure facilities, which will enhance the residential value and attraction in central London.

Interior configuration and living environment

The historical character of the house is in balance with its modern use. Original details have been preserved wherever they could, and modern finishes and systems have been added to accommodate contemporary living. A modern kitchen is situated within a rear extension, which extends out to a private garden, fostering the relationship between the interior and exterior.

The living spaces are conceived for both day-to-day and party time, with a clear split between public and private. Bedrooms are strategically located for privacy, and bathrooms and storage spaces are of a utilitarian nature, not decorative. An extensive photo array and floor plan help viewers understand layout and finishes to make data-informed decisions about space and condition.

Ownership status and market positioning

All new homes at 21 Passmore Street have now been sold, and the stock made available in the initial stages has been totally absorbed. But some resell their units on the secondary market, where one could clock into the scheme through private transactions instead of from developers.

Freehold status of the house is also a very major consideration for long-term ownership, as it represents structurally letting go and being free from leasehold covenants and restrictions. The price paid is not publicly listed, but the fact that it has already been built and occupied de-risks development and offers clarity on in-life livability and maintenance. This is a perspective that allows for calculated investment, aimed at securing an enduring residential asset in this prime London location.
