60 Curzon: A Fresh Take on One of London’s Most Exclusive Addresses – Elite Traveler
If you’ve been around London’s luxury scene for a minute, Mayfair’s hottest new address likely rings a bell. Rising where the famed Mirabelle restaurant once entertained legends like JFK and Winston Churchill, 60 Curzon is a fresh-faced yet storied entry into the city’s most exclusive postcode. This elegant collection of 32 private residences offers a unique chance to own a piece of hospitality history with a distinctly modern twist.
The name “Mirabelle” is synonymous with an era of chic indulgence, and 60 Curzon brings that glamor right back, but with a 21st-century edge. The debut show apartment at 60 Curzon – which is now available for £24.75m (approx. $31.4m) – is the result of a collaboration with the renowned London-based design studio Elicyon. Famed for its work at One Hyde Park and Chelsea Barracks, this residence sees Mayfair’s storied elegance blended with Elicyon’s signature modern sensibility, offering a fresh take on an iconic address.

The property is set within the first and only private residential building in Europe designed by legendary French architect Thierry Despont, whose signature Art Deco allure has defined London landmarks like 60 Curzon’s neighbor Claridge’s. But while the building’s façade evokes this classical geometry, inside, Elicyon has brought an undeniably fresh and cosmopolitan feel, ready for the next generation of Mayfair trendsetters.
“We drew inspiration from the building’s architectural heritage and crafted a space that seamlessly balances Art Deco influences with modern comforts,” founder and director of Elicyon, Charu Gandhi, explained. “Every detail, from the restored vintage pieces to the custom furnishings, was selected to create an atmosphere that feels timeless yet fresh – a perfect reflection of the vibrant and historic character of this iconic address.”

Throughout the four-bedroom property, you can spot thoughtful details and curated pieces that honor the storied address in every corner of its 4,209 sq-ft floorplan. The living room is anchored by original Art Deco pieces – a walnut side table here, a checker-patterned oak cabinet there – adding character without a hint of stuffiness.
Echoing the history of the site, the dining area is designed with a nod to Mirabelle’s fine-dining past. A mirrored drinks cabinet, a gleaming baby grand piano and an antique bar trolley create an atmosphere primed for cocktail soirées and elegant dinners.
In the primary bedroom suite, a pair of powder-blue armchairs practically invite you to sink in with a good book or gaze out at Mayfair below. Thoughtfully placed pieces like a vintage scalloped dressing table chair from locals Marylebone Antiques add a bit of flair, while the olive-green tile bedside cabinets, courtesy of British ceramicist Matthew Raw, lend a touch of local craftsmanship.

Down the hall in the guest room, a 1936 maple wood grand piano makes an unforgettable first impression, while a 660 lb marble urn from the 19th century reminds you that this is a place with gravitas. Elicyon’s layering of subtle against bold elements creates an environment that feels part vintage gallery, part chic retreat.
Finally, outside on the 807 sq-ft private terrace, antique planters, playful furniture and lush greenery, create a garden retreat that feels plucked from a distant English countryside manor. Here, among the greenery and oversized planters, you can soak in the serenity of one of London’s most vibrant neighborhoods from a space that feels like a world apart.
