Sloane House, Grade II listed building in Chelsea, United Kingdom
Sloane House is a Grade II listed residence at 149 Old Church Street in Chelsea, housing a mix of different dwelling units within its protected structure. The building preserves its original Georgian architectural character while serving contemporary residential needs.
The building dates to the late 18th century and embodies the architectural ideals of Georgian London. Its protected status today means any changes to the structure are governed by British heritage conservation laws.
The building reflects Chelsea's enduring preference for refined residential design and contributes to the character of the neighborhood as a whole. Its location on a quieter street has consistently attracted residents drawn to classic architecture and communities with strong historical identity.
The building sits on an established street with good access to local services and public transport links. Visitors should note this is a private residential complex with limited public access to the grounds and interior.
The building is named after Sir Hans Sloane, a prominent collector and physician whose legacy significantly shaped the area. Old Church Street, where it stands, carries this cultural connection through its name and continuing identity today.
