London's mews hold a special place in the hearts of those who love the capital. From the colourful cobbled enclaves of Kensington, to the tranquility of a Marylebone mews, there is something quintessentially London about these hidden homes.
Dexters has a variety of London mews for sale, and this Belgravia property is our pick of the bunch.

Today a new generation of homes is impressing buyers with its grandeur — the mews is no longer an add-on feature to a large house; it is a large house. Once popular with creative types early in their careers — such as Francis Bacon who lived in Reece Mews, South Kensington, west London; Roald Dahl in Turnchapel Mews, Clapham, southwest London; Sid Vicious in Pindock Mews, Maida Vale, northwest London, and Michael Caine in Albion Close, Bayswater, west London — mews houses are today more likely to be bought by monied professionals. Russell Ball, a director at Dexters’ Mayfair branch, says: “While mews are typically in conservation areas, few have period features that planners need to protect. With the onset of mansard roof extensions and basement digs, the once-modest mews house has become a viable alternative to large mansion-block flats.”
