A Hidden Gem in the Heart of the Capital
Montcalm Marble Arch Townhouse stands on a peaceful residential street in Marylebone, next to the storied Marble Arch monument that has welcomed travellers to this part of the West End for almost 200 years. Designed by John Nash in 1827, it was erected six years later as the state entrance to Buckingham Palace. Marble Arch was relocated in 1851, allegedly because the arch was too narrow for Queen Victoria’s stagecoach to pass through… However, the royal stagecoach passed through the arch during Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation in 1953, proving this rumour to be false.
The historic beauty of this monument is matched by the residential elegance of Montcalm Marble Arch Townhouse, its Georgian design offering an air of residential elegance. Within the walls of this graceful building lie tastefully appointed rooms combining classic design with thoughtful modern touches. Where crisp linens meet marble finishes.
