The Christian Candy development's properties have all been individually designed — some have ceilings that are more than 11ft high — and feature Gaggenau and Miele appliances in the Bulthaup kitchens, limed-oak wood flooring and Carrara-marble bathrooms.
Every property has access to outdoor space in the form of balconies, terraces, courtyards or gardens, with the rear of the development opening directly onto Holland Park.
Matching all this are exceptional services and amenities, from the 24-hour concierge to the 55ft pool with spa facilities and a gym designed by Olympic triathlete Tim Weeks.
