CARLTON HOUSE The Bishops Avenue London N2
1 Introduction Carlton House is a fine example of the imposing mansions located on the prestigious The Bishop s Avenue one of London s most exclusive residential addresses. Situated in leafy Hampstead, the area is renowned for its historic parks and woodland but still offers excellent proximity to London s financial district. The property is approached via a sweeping driveway allowing visitors the opportunity to fully appreciate the immense scale and quality of this impressive mansion. The understated architecture of the frontage gives little indication of the luxury and opulence that lies within, including 7 bedrooms all with lavish marble en-suite bathrooms, an indoor leisure and swimming pool complex and an even indulgent 10-person Turkish bath.
