Pears and Graces Is it an ultra-cool modern art gallery? Is it a magnificent stately monument? Nope, it's an unapologetically fabulous eight-bedroom home. Situated in splendour on the banks of the river, with the historic Thames Path threading passed its front gate, this Georgian listed building has all the old-time trappings of a superb London townhouse. But step inside and you'll be as surprised as you are blown away — with an astounding display of gallery-worthy art and impeccably chic design that blends masterfully with period interiors to create something timelessly classic, yet excitingly avant-garde. And with neighbours like famed artist William Morris's Victorian pile and Michelin-starred restaurant The River Cafe, you'll be in stellar company. Throw in a picturesque pint at one of the charming, waterside pubs, and a short stroll to Hammersmith for a zippy Tube ride into the city or Heathrow Airport, and we reckon it'll be impossible to enjoy staying anywhere else afterwards. You're welcome. Set over five floors and dripping in plush furnishings, sought-after swirled marble, and state-of-the-art amenities, every room vies for attention. Each element of its immaculate interior has been expertly designed, from striking light installations, to a richly accented palette. Impressive architectural features and delightfully arresting artwork keep you on your toes. Even the hallways are enhanced to perfection, and with their elegant coved ceilings and sweeping spiral stairs, you'd be forgiven for indulging in a Fred Astaire moment (A-stairs, anyone?). Light is accentuated throughout by sash windows and high ceilings, although the living and dining rooms go one further, showcasing swathes of glass and majestic chandeliers. The kitchen and bathrooms are drenched in sleek marbled porcelain, while eight deluxe bedrooms combine sumptuous textures with five-star comfort. Looking for ways to entertain the children so you can maximise wine time on the terrace? May we suggest the spacious playroom, complete with cinematic TV and table football. There's also a handy guest apartment on the lower-ground floor, plus a luxury TV room for those cosy nights in. But the slightest glimmer of sunshine and it's out to the beautifully manicured garden for an alfresco meal. So sit back, relax, and enjoy this one-of-a-kind home as it was designed — in impeccable style. We love... The short answer is — everything! But if we had to narrow it down, it would be the eye-popping fruit sculptures, with their liquid lines and vivid colours, proving elevated design can come with a sense of humour. Bedroom-wise, we love the principal bedroom for its vast dressing room, and the twin room with its matching four-posters, emerald accents, and that exquisite lacquer cabinet. Then there's all the inspired extra flourishes, like the fluorescent, Bowie-esque canvas in the entrance, the Baby Grand piano in the living room, and the gas fire pit in the garden. We could do this all day... There's a double sofa bed in the guest living room to sleep an extra 2 guests. Two of the bedrooms feature trundle beds that pull out to sleep 2 guests each - perfect for children. Even though the Thames Path is on your doorstep, being set back from the river and screened off affords some welcome privacy. There's a large, gated driveway behind the house, with two parking spaces available on request. There are 4 floors with 2 spiral staircases. The lower ground floor includes a large utility room, boasting 3 washing machines and 3 tumble dryers. There are 9 gas fireplaces. The kitchen is impressively equipped with 3 dishwashers, 3 freezers, 2 fridges, 2 ovens, and 2 microwaves. Not to mention our favourite kitchen extras - a warming drawer and wine fridge. Almost every bedroom has Air Con except the two that stay coolest (in the basement and next to the conservatory). A few rooms (not pictured) will be locked with no guest access.
