A two-bedroom apartment above one of Mayfair’s most talked-about retail destinations has come to market for £5.5m, offering buyers the chance to live quite literally on top of London’s most glamorous grocer.
Set on the first floor of 64 South Audley Street, the 1,321 sq ft lateral apartment sits directly above Farm Shop Mayfair – the Artfarm-owned food emporium known for its farm-to-fork produce and high-profile clientele.
The shop has quickly become a destination in its own right, attracting a mix of well-heeled Londoners, international visitors and celebrity regulars.
The apartment itself has undergone a full refurbishment by its current owners, combining period features with contemporary design. Positioned on a corner plot, it benefits from dual-aspect sash windows that flood the interiors with natural light, alongside ceiling heights reaching 3.6m.
LUXURY SETTING
Accommodation includes a reception and dining room, a separate kitchen/breakfast room, a principal bedroom suite with ensuite bathroom, a second double bedroom, a further shower room and a dedicated utility space.
Interiors lean towards a soft, neutral palette, with bespoke joinery, parquet flooring, air conditioning and integrated smart home features including a Sonos sound system.
What sets the property apart, however, is its setting. Directly downstairs, Farm Shop Mayfair offers everything from artisan cheeses and fresh bakery goods to high-welfare meat and hyper-seasonal foraged produce, alongside a wine cellar with an extensive list.
The concept is part of Artfarm, founded by Iwan Wirth and Manuela Wirth, who are also behind the internationally recognised Hauser & Wirth.
The building itself carries a longer pedigree. Constructed in the early 1890s, it later became home to renowned florist Constance Spry, whose work for royal occasions – including the 1953 coronation of Elizabeth II – is commemorated with a Blue Plaque on the façade.
Her presence helped cement South Audley Street’s reputation as a destination for elite clientele, a status it retains today.
The apartment also sits within easy reach of Mayfair’s established lifestyle offering, including galleries, private members’ clubs and green spaces such as Hyde Park and Mount Street Gardens.
A new gallery space from Hauser & Wirth is also due to open nearby, further reinforcing the area’s cultural credentials.
LATERAL LIVING SPACE
Jeremy Gee, Managing Director of Beauchamp Estates, says: “The apartment at 64 South Audley Street offers beautiful, newly refurbished lateral living space in turn-key condition in one of Mayfair’s most iconic Blue Plaque addresses.
“The handsome Victorian red-brick building has long drawn London’s most elite clientele when the ground floor unit was the flower shop of HLM Queen Elizabeth II’s favourite florist, Constance Spry.
“Since 2023 as London’s most glamorous grocer, Artfarm’s Farm Shop, its seasonal ingredients supply nearby Mount Street Restaurant, one of King Charles III and Queen Camilla’s favourite eateries.”
EXCEPTIONAL OPPORTUNITY
Vlad Viaryshka, Senior Sales Negotiator at Beauchamp Estates, adds: “Perfectly positioned in the heart of Mayfair, moments from Hyde Park, this elegant apartment presents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a meticulously restored and interior designed home.
“Benefiting from high ceilings and a remarkable amount of natural light, it balances architectural heritage with every contemporary luxury, and is already drawing considerable interest, from European buyers in particular.”
