Overview

2-8a Rutland Gate is a private residential development in Knightsbridge, London SW7.

Prior to refurbishment, the building comprises 45 bedrooms and 62,000 sq ft.

History

In October 2022, FT reveals the property might be for sale through Beauchamp Estates.

In 2021, a planning application with an updated look by Squire and Partners was submitted to Westminster Council for:
- Repair, partial demolition and alteration to parts of the existing building’s façade;
- Improve and re-organise the internal layouts necessitating replacement of some of the internal floor slabs;
- Demolition and remodelling of the existing fourth and fifth-floor levels with the introduction of a replacement mansard and a 3.3m increase in building height;
- Minor basement excavation at Level -2 to extend the existing floor level to accommodate plant.

2020 January - Cheung Chung-Kiu, the founder and chairman of CC Land Holdings, bought the mansion for £210,000,000.

2012 September - the house is reportedly for sale for £300 million (not on the open market).

2015 June - The owners are said to be preparing to sell the property's entire contents - from ornate chandeliers to jewel-encrusted bidets to curtains, doors and even gold-plated waste-paper bins - by public auction, in a knock-down fire sale at which no low offer is too insulting, reports The Guardian.

1836 - Rutland House is demolished.

1752 - Rutland House is built and owned by John Manners.
