No. 20, London WC2E 7QH, United Kingdom
Residing on the Piazza is a privilege reserved for the very few. No. 20 offers the rare opportunity to experience London’s most vibrant district from a position of absolute sanctuary. Located within The Palladio—a boutique collection of lateral residences with a proven pedigree of housing high-profile individuals.
Spanning an impressive 1,701 sq. ft., the residence pairs immediate access to the West End with the serenity of a dedicated home. Whether you are in London for a theatrical season, conducting business in the City, filming a production, or on an extended residency, No. 20 offers a secure environment where you can arrive, unpack, and exhale with a profound sense of peace in the heart of the capital.
No. 20 is not merely an apartment; it is a recalibration of the Central London experience. Housed within the commanding architecture of The Palladio, this residence offers a rare proposition in the West End: the expansive volume of an American loft, refined by the sensibilities of a classic English home.
Here, the energy of the Piazza exists only when you choose it. Behind the building's distinguished façade lies a sanctuary of rare calm. Fitted with state-of-the-art German-engineered vacuum-glazing (Fineo-grade) windows by Schuco for absolute acoustic silence, creating a profound sense of tranquility.
The defining feature of the flat is its scale. In a city known for vertical, narrow living, No. 20 offers a rare, expansive lateral footprint. The reception area is open to the well-appointed kitchen, bathed in natural light and grounded by stunning herringbone solid hardwood floors.
It is a space designed for flexible living—whether entertaining guests via the integrated Sonos® system or simply unwinding in the air-conditioned comfort of a true home. The residence features floor-to-ceiling Carrara marble-tiled bathrooms, a slipper tub, and walk-in frameless glass showers, each gently warmed with underfloor heating. A fully integrated smart home system includes Rako® lighting, an HP wireless printer, and 1 Gbps fibre-optic Internet.
Life here is frictionless. The residence is designed to anticipate the needs of those for whom time is the ultimate asset.
Rest & Recovery: The Ultimate Sanctuary After a demanding day—whether on set at Pinewood or in the boardroom—the residence becomes a retreat within a retreat. The primary suite features a walk-in dressing room capable of accommodating a full season’s wardrobe, while the superior soundproofing and blackout capabilities guarantee deep rest regardless of your schedule.
The Strategic Advantage: For talent and directors, this location unlocks the "Reverse Commute," allowing you to live in the cultural heart of the capital while traveling against traffic for effortless studio access.
Command & Connectivity: A Capital Headquarters For those requiring a base of operations, this is your command center. The kitchen is not merely for show; it is a high-performance workspace featuring Gaggenau appliances and Carrara stone surfaces, fully equipped for your arrival.
The Hosting Experience: Whether hosting a private chef dinner or a casual strategy meeting, this is a place to live, work, and entertain with the same authority you command in New York or Los Angeles.
For the discerning, the trade-off has traditionally been space versus service. Hotels offer a concierge but confine you to a single room; rentals offer space but often lack the essential infrastructure of a modern home. No. 20 eliminates the compromise.
We define "turnkey" by the absence of friction. There are no narrow staircases to navigate and no stifling summer nights. Set within a secure, portered building with CCTV and elevator, the transition is seamless. You do not just "check in"; you resume your life, uninterrupted.
