The Outer Circle circumnavigates the park and is lined with Imposing, well presented Grade l listed terraced houses, designed by the late Architect, John Nash; a part of the Romantic sensibility of the 18th century, exemplifying the grandeur accessible by notable London city and international personalities.

Houses are imposing, elegant, well sought after and highly accommodating for families; allowing space, privacy and yet facility to entertain substantial occasions. Historic owners would have been expected to have continued meticulous upgrading and refurbishments to their properties to integrate modern styling, lifestyle and technology; no items are amiss, from lifts to reach all floors, en-suite bathrooms for most bedrooms, dressing rooms, wine cellars.

The essential feature of these mansions are views overlooking Regent's Park and the boating lake; the upper floors are designed to encapsulate opportunities to experience the views; hence the master bedrooms and Double reception rooms would be taking advantage of the views at the front of the house, for one's own pleasure or to showcase to guests from the reception balcony. Many owners would have also gone as far as to landscape their roof terraces.

As expected with houses at this size range, properties often come with Mews house, Guest accommodation and Staff accommodation. Houses also come with access to resident gardens and parking.
