Victorian villas around a London park.
Holland Park is one of London’s most generous residential characters — stucco-and-brick Victorian villas, Edwardian garden-square houses, and a property stock that runs along the park edge and out into the wider W11 and W14 streets. Property typology spans grand single-family houses, private homes, mansion flat conversions, and the boutique mews around Holland Park Mews and Aubrey Walk.
In a house at this scale that means scale, discretion, designer-led paint specification, and the operational care that keeps a household running through long programmes. Most projects are designer- or architect-specified and run three to twelve weeks.

ABOUT HOLLAND PARK
The garden-square ideal, on a London scale.
Holland Park’s signature is the garden-square villa: late-Victorian and Edwardian houses arranged around Holland Park itself and the smaller communal squares (Stafford Terrace, Phillimore Gardens, Campden Hill). Conservation Area coverage runs across most of W11 north of Holland Park Avenue and a substantial slice of W14 around Melbury Road.
The decorating brief is set by interior designers and architects in most cases — Farrow & Ball, Little Greene and Paint & Paper Library specifications, sample boards, period cornicing and ceiling-rose restoration. We’ve worked the area for decades; most of our foremen have hands-on hours on Phillimore, Melbury and Addison.
