50 St James's Street, Grade II listed house in St James's Street, London.
50 St James's Street is a Grade II listed house featuring classical architectural elements with a prominent stone facade and symmetrically arranged windows across multiple floors. The structure displays characteristic Georgian design with formal, proportioned detailing throughout.
The house was designed in 1827 by architects Benjamin and Philip Wyatt, initially serving as Crockford's, a renowned gentleman's club. Its use changed over the following decades as patterns of occupation shifted in this London district.
The building reflects London's social traditions, showing how this address evolved from an exclusive gentlemen's gathering place to modern residential use. Its architecture and design tell the story of a time when such locations were central to city life.
The property is located on prestigious St James's Street opposite White's Club and near Green Park station. The area offers many restaurants and shops that enhance a visit to the district.
The property was acquired by a Russian billionaire in 2014 and gained attention in 2017 when it was temporarily occupied by homeless individuals. This became a notable moment raising questions about ownership and space use in London.
