The beautiful, expansive greenery of Regent’s Park is one of London’s finest assets. Residents of Regent’s Park can enjoy the benefits this vast, well maintained, on-your-doorstep park affords. Covering an area of 395 acres, this Royal Park features Queen Mary's Gardens with more than 12,000 roses of 400 varieties. With excellent sports facilities spanning nearly 100 acres it includes the largest outdoor sports area in central London.
The properties surrounding the park are among the most stunning and luxurious in the capital. Currently both the Sultan of Brunei and the US Ambassador own property here.
Bordering the vibrant and affluent areas of Marylebone, Camden and Primrose Hill, Regent’s Park has historically been one of the most sought-after corners of London. Like most of the great parks in London, the land was originally part of Henry VIII’s vast swathe of hunting grounds. After hunting fell out of favour with the aristocracy the land was used for farming until 1811, when King George IV considered using the land for a new summer palace.
The palace was planned but never built after he turned his attentions to improving Buckingham Palace instead, but plans for the creation of the park continued under designer John Nash. Regent's Park is now considered to be a perfect example of Georgian landscape design and planning, and is often referred to as the ‘jewel in the crown’.
Architecture in Regent’s Park
As one would expect from the Regency history and development of Regent’s Park under King George IV, the properties on the surrounding terraces of the Outer Circle are large, imposing Regency-style Georgian terraced houses with views over the park. Known colloquially as the Grand Nash Terraces, after John Nash, they are some of the finest examples of prime Regency architecture in London.
What makes Regent’s Park so special?
The Regent’s Park area is perhaps the most regal, refined and elegant in London, attracting international royals, such as the Sultan of Brunei, to its grand, sweeping terraces. The amenities of Marylebone, Camden, Primrose Hill and St John’s Wood are in close proximity, yet the properties here enjoy the peace and seclusion of being on the edge of parkland and protected green space.
