All About Mayfair Homes

The truly sophisticated urbanite knows that Mayfair is far more important than holding the coveted matching card to Park Lane in a childhood game of Monopoly. Even Monaco and Miami (though sunnier), now barely compare to the prestige of prime central London.

Ultra High Net Worth, ridiculously wealthy individuals from all around the world favor central London homes and apartments, when they are available. According to Zoopla in February 2015 the average asking price of a property for sale in Mayfair was 4,536,437 (GBP), with the average asking rent at a modest 13,876 (GBP) per month. In fact, the Telegraph reports you could purchase Napoleon’s 74 room Italian countryside estate laid out over 60 acres for less than a 2 bedroom flat in central London.

While there aren’t many Mayfair homes to buy (only 87 in Q1 2015), you could always design your own, and there are no limits to the extravagance. The Royal Institute of British Architects reports that billionaire property investors; the Reuben brothers just obtained approval for a 1,655 square meter home in Mayfair, which is 20 times larger than the average property in the country. The new home worthy of real royalty is to include 8 bedrooms, a swimming pool, sauna, and of course the obligatory staff quarters.

With mortgage interest rates so low, it looks like 2015 is the best time to buy Mayfair property for the budget conscious and investor too.

Why You’ll Love Living in Mayfair…

Of course most affluent ladies in London could care less about the price tag, providing the location (and interior) checks all the boxes worthy of a sophisticated modern housewife. So what is it that really makes Mayfair the ultimate lifestyle choice?

Mayfair’s magic and status is timeless. There are many well established purveyors of the world’s finest goods which have been here since the 1700s here. This is the epicenter of London’s, and the planet’s most regal luxury hotels. Bounded by Hyde Park, Green Park, St. James, Piccadilly, and Oxford Circus; residences here offer plenty of green space to look at, and endless shopping and entertainment just moments from your front door. There are actually no tube stations within Mayfair, which limits the riffraff, and provides a more pleasant experience.

The cultured London lady will discover plenty of art galleries, including the Royal Academy of Arts, and its array of fairy tale dining options. Make sure to pay a visit to The Keeper’s Garden. While many of the restaurant and shopping options may change, there are legendary staples like the champagne bar at Claridge’s, afternoon tea at the Ritz, Louis Vuitton Maison, and Luponde Tea. Mayfair is also home to the premier auction houses of Christie’s and Sotheby’s.

If you are looking for more variety there is always Harrods and Yo Sushi in nearby Knightsbridge, Oxford Street, and the mayhem of Leicester Square and Piccadilly Circus nearby for those looking for a little more excitement, and who don’t mind boogieing alongside masses of strangers.

The Pastor Real Estate Report ‘Perspectives’ notes that The Crown Estate is currently planning to invest 500 million pounds in upgrading local buildings and public spaces. This might help nearby St. James gain some ground, and is to help fuel Pastor’s forecast of 27% prime central London real estate price growth by 2018. However, it is unlikely we’ll see Mayfair lose its crown as the most fashionable, and desirable place to live, ever.

If the prestige for business and an address that will have others talking doesn’t do it for you, then location, a rich history of residents such as romantic poet Lord Byron, and the limitless shopping might.

I’ll see you there!

Yes, that’s probably me behind the gold Super Limited Ray Ban’s, with the Louis bag, being let out of the Rolls Royce Wraith by my driver…
