Tucked into a quiet corner of WC2, Macklin House sits within a red-brick mansion block that once formed part of Sir Cameron Mackintosh’s theatre costume warehouses – a building with real West End history, moments from Covent Garden.
The property is a duplex spread over ground and lower ground floors, with around 1,300 sq ft of space, a glass-framed staircase connecting the two levels, generous reception and dining areas, a separate study, two bathrooms, and a well-sized kitchen. Best of all, there’s a private courtyard garden right at its heart — calm, green, and accessed via patio doors.
Macklin House is currently on the market for sale, and the owners are looking for Guardians with a natural eye for interiors who will present it with care throughout their time there. Prospective buyers will be viewing during your licence period, and this is reflected in the monthly fee. If you’re design-conscious, comfortable welcoming viewings, and take real pride in the spaces you inhabit, this could be a pretty special place to call home — however briefly.
