Property of the Week

Just moments from the Abbey Road Recording Studios and the iconic zebra crossing featured on The Beatles album cover, a stylish penthouse has come to the market with estate agent DEXTERS for £3,895,000, ideal for a musician or music producer.

Located in sleek development The Galleries at 9 Abbey Road, the penthouse offers chic living space inclusive of four bedrooms, a large open-plan kitchen and living area and a private roof terrace looking onto the famous street.

The Abbey Road Recording Studios have operated since 1931 and are where countless famous musicians and producers have recorded their albums including The Beatles with George Martin, Cliff Richard, Kanye West and Kylie Minogue.

The front cover of The Beatles’ 1969 album Abbey Road features the band walking across the zebra crossing outside, which has now become a world-wide attraction and which achieved Grade II Listed status in 2010. Each year thousands of fans come to take photos on the crossing themselves and there is a live webcam showing the crossing all year-round.

Just moments from the legendary recording studios and the crossing, The Galleries is an impressive modern development with select apartments having covered balconies overlooking the street. The penthouse has come to the market with DEXTERS, who anticipate high demand given the desirable St John’s Wood location and the space on offer.

Located on the fourth floor and providing 2,331 sq. ft. of living space, there is a large open-plan kitchen and living area as the central hub of the home. The kitchen offers a black granite worktop, island, and integrated appliances, with the living room a bright open space with lots of natural light from a skylight. The room opens via two sets of double doors onto an internal balcony which overlooks the road.

There is a private south-easterly facing roof terrace to one side, perfect for al fresco dining or evening entertaining. The penthouse has four bedrooms, two of them with en suite bathrooms, as well as a family bathroom.

Jeremy Rosenblatt, Director of DEXTERS St John’s Wood Office says, “The Abbey Road penthouse is a fantastic space, providing ample open-plan living room with lots of natural light. It is located just moments from the famous Abbey Road Recording Studios and the iconic Beatles zebra crossing, a highly desirable location to this day. This penthouse would be a great purchase for a musician or someone in the music industry – there is plenty of space for a drum kit.”

Abbey Road is located close to The American School, St John's Wood High Street and Underground Station (Jubilee Line) and Lord’s Cricket Ground.
