Witanhurst, Grade II listed mansion in Highgate, England
The Georgian Revival mansion extends over three floors with 65 rooms, including 25 bedrooms and a 70-foot ballroom with oak flooring and walnut panels.
The property was built between 1913 and 1920 by architect George Hubbard for soap manufacturer Sir Arthur Crosfield on the site of former Parkfield estate.
The mansion served as the filming location for several BBC productions, including Fame Academy talent show between 2002 and 2004.
The residence underwent extensive renovation after 2008, including the construction of a two-story underground extension beneath the entire building footprint.
With over 90,000 square feet of interior space, Witanhurst remains the second largest private residence in London after Buckingham Palace.
