Cobbled together: London's best mews houses on the market now, from Belgravia to Bethnal Green
Traditionally tucked away behind grander lodgings, the picture-perfect mews home belies its humble origins
Has any London icon enjoyed a leap in status like the mews house? Built for the horses and stable staff of larger homes nearby, their quaint, cottage-like appearance and limited number has seen them become some of the most sought-after real estate in the capital.
Usually two-storey, with a squarish footprint and a stable-turned-garage, original 18th and 19th century mews houses remain concentrated in zone 1, even if the grand residences they once served are long gone.
A Mayfair mews house sold for £24 million in 2015 is a record yet to be topped, but there are clusters of mews homes in less pricey neighbourhoods, as well as modern builds that take their inspiration from traditional vernacular.
Here are 10 of the best we've found on the market now.
