St Saviours is a church that was converted into an opulent mansion.It was originally designed by Belgrave Square architect George Basevi in 1838. The Diocese of London sold most of St Saviours a while back for about £1 million. After that, only a smal section of the church was still used for worship. The rest was bought by developers who turned it into a 4-story home that was owned for six years by Les Misérables and Miss Saigon writer Alain Boublil. He sold it for £13.5 million in 2009 to a Thai businessman who commissioned a second makeover costing an estimated £10 million and lasting almost three years.

Holwood House is a historic mansion located in London. It was painstakingly renovated over a 3 year period by the current owner. It features approximately 24,940 square feet of living space with 9 bedrooms, beautiful Clive Christian gourmet kitchen, home theater, billiards room and more. The expansive grounds feature manicured lawns and a tennis court.

This is a fantastic home. I love everything about it, especially the kitchen. Clive Christian is one of the best kitchen designers around. I’m curious as to what other amenities the house offers. I’m thinking it also has indoor swimming pool; as most London mansions do.

This luxurious 4-level home is located in Grosvenor Gardens Mews North, London, UK. It features approximately 10,883 square feet of interior living space and 2,536 square feet of exterior living space. The ground floor features a entry foyer with sweeping curved staircase and water features, a guest bathroom, home office,  wine room, eat-in gourmet kitchen, utility room with half bathroom, garden courtyard with outdoor fireplace and an open concept living/dining/family room area that all surround an interior courtyard. The 1st floor features the master suite with private terrace as well an additional bedroom suite. The 2nd floor features 3 bedroom suites. The lower level features a staff bedroom suite with kitchen, gym, half bathroom, home theater and an indoor swimming pool with jacuzzi, bathroom and steam room.

Now this is a gorgeous and beautifully decorated home. I love the fact that the main reception rooms revolve around an interior courtyard; brings the outdoors indoors. You don’t see a feature like that too often. The rooms are quite spacious (as they should be for $53 million) and I love the neutral/elegant decor and color choices. It’s not over-the-top gaudy or too modern like you see in some of these London homes.
