Berkeley has unveiled a collection of two magnificent penthouses, The Regent and The Hanover, which sit atop The Westmark, West End Gate.
The penthouses, 29 storeys high with far-reaching views across the capital’s vistas, are the epitome of London elegance; grand entrance spaces lead through wide hallways adorned with high ceilings and herringbone flooring.
The homes both benefit from four luxurious bedroom suites and three spacious balconies, each offering a different viewpoint over London, as well as a large study, living space and formal dining room. The sleek kitchen offers integrated Gaggenau appliances, bespoke timber veneer cabinetry and expansive composite stone island and breakfast bar, angled to take in the best of the views.
Each home features a hidden service kitchen, ingeniously – and most importantly discretely – located behind the dining room, ideally set up for refined dining on a grand scale should residents wish to bring professional caterers on board. The penthouses each benefit from two entry doors; the main entrance, and a second service entrance allowing staff and other service personnel to enter via the rear of the apartment.
The Regent spans 4,757 sq ft and its sophisticated interiors, designed by Killer5, are rich and opulent thanks to a palette of dark woods and golds, perfectly complementing Berkeley’s luxury specification. This is a home which is completely bespoke; the elegant furniture pieces, the sumptuous soft furnishings, and the decorative accessories – as well as most of the carefully chosen artworks – have been meticulously designed and crafted for the penthouse. The stunning result is a home inspired by its West London surroundings and appealing perfectly to its target market.
The Hanover penthouse comprises 4,660 sq ft of living space and features the same, impressive specification as The Regent; with interiors by A.London (Accouter Group), it will launch in August 2022.
Designed by renowned architects Squire and Partners, The Westmark is a contemporary reimagining of the distinctive Edwardian and Victorian mansion buildings in neighbouring Marylebone and Maida Vale, and these opulent homes showcase superbly the five-star lifestyle on offer at this striking development, an iconic new landmark on London’s skyline.
The Westmark signposts West End Gate’s prominent position; its classical proportions and the elegant simplicity of its design create an air of serenity and showcase Berkeley’s meticulous attention to detail and the exceptional quality of the material palette of stone, brick and bronze. The tower is complemented by a collection of red-brick apartment buildings, inspired by West London’s classic mansions, and private landscaped gardens; manicured planting and a central water feature create a tranquil retreat away from city life.
An impressive array of world-class amenities is available exclusively to residents. The wellness suite is a peaceful sanctuary in which to unwind, comprising a 17m swimming pool, steam room, sauna, and treatment rooms, as well as a state-of-the-art gym and studio. To entertain and impress guests, a cinema room, as well as an elegant private dining room and kitchen, can be booked via the 24-hour concierge desk in the lobby of The Westmark; the staff are available to assist with bookings, deliveries and enquiries to make day-to-day living convenient and efficient.
Paul Vallone, divisional managing director of Berkeley, said: “The penthouses at West End Gate offer an exceptional opportunity for those who are looking for a luxury London home in a superb central setting. West End Gate is already an established and lively development and home to many, and residents enjoy close proximity to some of the capital’s most prestigious neighbourhoods, from the tranquil canals of Little Venice and the leafy boulevards of Maida Vale to elegant Marylebone. With the wider Paddington area undergoing an exciting evolution, this is fast becoming one of Zone 1’s hottest property spots.”
Alex Carr, director within JLL’s Prime Central London New Homes team, added: “Both penthouses at West End Gate epitomise elegant luxury living; positioned in a sought-after central London address, boasting well-appointed expansive living spaces whilst also benefiting from panoramic views across London’s skyline including Regent’s Park and Hyde Park.
“As immediate access to luxury comforts becomes increasingly sought after, The Penthouse Collection at West End Gate presents an exciting prospect for a buyer who seeks to have all their needs met in one place. There is nothing else on the market in the area within a similar price range at this height, size and with access to facilities comparable to those at The Westmark. Furthermore, with proximity to Paddington station, residents at West End Gate are extremely well-connected, now more so than ever before with the recent arrival of the Elizabeth Line.”
Residents are ideally placed to explore London’s rich cultural landscape, including its renowned museums and galleries, and the landmark Royal Albert Hall. West End Gate is just a minute’s walk from Edgware Road station.
For international travel, King’s Cross St Pancras and the Eurostar is just seven minutes’ away by train via the Hammersmith and City line, while the Heathrow Express reaches the UK’s largest airport from Paddington Station in just 15 minutes. Train services from Paddington Station via the Elizabeth Line reach Liverpool Street in just seven minutes and Canary Wharf in just 17 minutes. Later this year, Elizabeth Line services will also travel to Bond Street; bringing this internationally-renowned shopping destination just one stop away.
The Regent and The Hanover penthouses are each priced at £12.75m. To view the home and experience the state-of-the-art immersion room at West End Gate’s sales and marketing suite, call 0203 040 4963 or visit westendgate.co.uk.
