In London’s canal-lined Little Venice, a Grade II-listed historic townhouse that stood empty for more than a decade has been brought back to life through a comprehensive restoration. Built in the 1830s as one of a pair of Italianate villas, the six-storey house sits on Warwick Avenue, overlooking the basin of the Grand Union/Regent’s Canal.
The London studio behind the project
London-based SHH Architecture & Interiors led the project’s architecture, planning, interior design and furnishing, describing the restoration as “late-Georgian elegance layered with contemporary overlays.” The design team worked to balance the constraints of a listed building and conservation-area setting with the needs of a family home built for contemporary living.

The completed restoration was unveiled during London’s Frieze Art Week, framed as a meeting of fine art and architecture. The house is now on the market through Savills’ St John’s Wood & Regent’s Park office, offering six bedrooms, five bathrooms, four reception rooms and a roughly 22-metre west-facing landscaped garden.
