Charles Dickens’ Regent’s Park Home Is Back On The Market

What do you get when you mix luxury with literature? Charles Dickens’ Regent’s Park townhouse, of course – and it’s now up for sale.

Look Inside… Charles Dickens’ Regent’s Park Home

If you’re committed to owning a piece of the past, this astonishing home boasts Grade I status (awarded to only 2.5 percent of UK listed buildings) – meaning it’s been deemed a place of particular historical significance. It dates back to the early 19th century and was once owned by Charles Dickens, serving as a rather majestic summer home. Though this may sound ravishing, it comes with a price: a hefty £18.95 million.

The townhouse was designed by John Nash – an architect who can be credited for working on none other than Buckingham Palace – and it’s certainly a property of palatial proportions. It spans more than 6000 square feet of space across five floors, with highlights including seven vast bedrooms, a sauna and a gym. There’s a separate self-contained mews house, too, with a garage and two bedrooms.

A far cry from the grey-hued London of Oliver Twist, this really is the height of grandeur. If you’ve been waiting for something unique to come along – and you’ve got a lot of cash to spare – it just might be the house for you.
