The district is renowned for its Georgian townhouses and mansion blocks, particularly around Harley Street, Portland Place and Bryanston Square. Marylebone High Street and Chiltern Street feature elegant conversions with boutique residences. Lateral apartments in red-brick mansion blocks, such as those along Montagu Square, are highly sought after. Recent developments, including The Chilterns and Marylebone Square have introduced modern luxury within a heritage setting.

Marylebone High Street is the area’s focal point, with its curated mix of independent boutiques, artisanal food shops and international dining. The Chiltern Firehouse has become a landmark destination, while the Wallace Collection and Wigmore Hall reinforce the district’s cultural pedigree. A wealth of private medical clinics along Harley Street ensures world-class healthcare on the doorstep, adding to Marylebone’s appeal for international families.

Despite its centrality, Marylebone is rich in green spaces. Regent’s Park is immediately adjacent, offering 400 acres of landscaped gardens, sports facilities and open-air theatre. Private garden squares such as Montagu Square provide tranquillity and seclusion. Wellness is well catered for with private gyms, pilates studios and holistic health services integrated throughout the neighbourhood.

Marylebone is exceptionally well located for education. Wetherby Senior School, Queen’s College, Francis Holland (Regent’s Park) and Abercorn are nearby, while international families often look to the American School in St John’s Wood. Many also consider Westminster or St Paul’s.

Connectivity is excellent: Marylebone station provides mainline and Underground access, while Bond Street and Baker Street stations connect directly across London and to Heathrow via the Elizabeth Line.

Marylebone has seen strong growth over the past decade, fuelled by the Howard de Walden Estate’s careful stewardship and international demand. Trophy houses on garden squares and lateral apartments in prime mansion blocks command premiums, often in excess of £3,000–£4,500 per sq ft. Boutique new-builds such as Marylebone Square attract global interest, with off-market transactions increasingly common.

- A discreet, village-like atmosphere within central London.
- Georgian architecture and highly coveted mansion blocks.
- A curated high street with cultural and dining pedigree.
