Doughty &
John Street
Doughty Street and its continuation of John
Street, is a much sought after location for both residential
and commercial occupiers. Originally a street of residential
Georgian townhouses, their usage gradually changed during the
late 1900’s as commercial occupiers, mainly literary groups
and law firms spilling over from the nearby Inn’s of Court
took up occupation. From the early 1990’s
to the present date, Doughty Street has witnessed a resurgence
of residential occupiers converting its fine houses back to
family homes. These new and affluent residents realize that
they are living in arguably the finest residential location
in Bloomsbury.
On average only two houses are sold each year
on Doughty Street, These grade II listed houses range in size
from 3,000 – 6,000 square feet and some are blessed
with long 40 – 70 ft Gardens.
There are also a few purpose built and original
houses that have been configured as one and two bedroom apartments.
The Mews
The Mews
that run parallel, flanking Doughty & John Street were
originally built as stables for the houses of Doughty &
John Street. These quaint cobblestoned streets are now host
to an eclectic mix of commercial spaces, photography studios,
apartments and town houses |
