The world as a whole is one amorphous address within which is a sea of addresses defined by location, style, quality, position, culture and many other factors too numerous to mention.
In many countries of the world are mansions, castles and ‘houses’ sharply differentiated by the taste and architecture that went into their conception, design and construction.
In Lagos, Nigeria is Ikoyi- one of the world’s exclusive neighbourhoods- harbouring castles and mansions where the elite in Nigerian society flaunt their rich taste for luxury and quality.
Outside Nigeria, in far away London, the global housing market has seen what has been touted as an exclusive address that readily qualifies as the ‘world’s number one address’, flaunting luxury interior that makes living a romantic experience. That address is One Hyde Park Residence.
Iconically positioned on the edge of Hyde Park and Knightsbridge with spectacular views over the park and towards Sloane Street and Harrods, One Hyde Park, the residences at Mandarin Oriental, is London’s most prestigious residential development. Global Windsor Group Limited, working with Savills, the world’s leading property advisor, presented this prestigious address to the Nigerian housing market.
According to Global Windsor Group’s CEO, Richard Vedelago, “within this address resides the most affluent and prestigious international clientele; we firmly believe that One Hyde Park is the world’s number one address, and this is the ultimate opportunity for the smart Nigerian purchaser for whom we have setup a team ready to answer their every need and question.
The 86 apartments and three retail boutiques across four pavilions represent a unique collaboration between the world’s leading architects, designers, artisans and hoteliers, who together have delivered the most exceptional residential living experience.
It is clear that every aspect of this celebrated scheme is exceptional, an unrivalled location in Knightsbridge, iconic architecture by the award-winning Richard Rogers and interior design by Candy & Candy.
The extensive amenities and leisure facilities provided exclusively for residents exceed any other residential development in London and the rest of the world. The facilities include a private cinema, 21 metre ozone swimming pool, saunas and steam rooms, private exercise rooms, relaxation and treatment rooms, squash court, state-of-the-art gym, golf simulator and virtual games room, wine cellars, business suite, private entertainment room, park library, secure underground parking, car cleaning and valet service.
On top of this, One Hyde Park is also the first European Residences of Mandarin Oriental meaning residents enjoy the comforts of a private home with the unsurpassed amenities and legendary services of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group – the first time this level of service had been delivered in a residential development in London.
A dedicated team of 68 Mandarin Oriental staff are on site 24 hours a day to ensure One Hyde Park residents enjoy all the exceptional services, amenities and sophisticated security infrastructure that are provided as part of the development and hotel. This includes access to the hotel’s gourmet cuisine and beverages via 24-hour room service, an array of on-site concierge, doorman and security, housekeeping and valet services, and a range of dining, entertainment and well-being facilities.
Candy & Candy’s vision as interior designers was to create the most exquisite interiors to match the exclusivity of the address. The Candy & Candy design team called upon craftsmen and artisans from around the world and used only the very finest materials, including more than 15 different types of stone sourced from as far as Turkey, Brazil, China and Egypt.
It is this collaborative approach that has placed One Hyde Park in a class of its own on a global scale, and has raised the standards of quality, luxury, and service in residential developments to extraordinary levels.
