The mansion was built in 1868 by JS Nightingale and Charles Till, for the civil engineer Edward Gotto who then proceeded to expand it. In the following decades, the businessman lived in a part of it Thomas Crapper and in the 1960s the comedian Marty Feldman.

In 2015, the British singer Sam Smith bought the property next door which he reportedly later sold to Boy George. According to the Evening Standard, the star then undertook an ambitious three-year renovation project.

It has five bedrooms and bathrooms, a cinema, a meditation room, a master suite with a separate bathroom and a huge skylight, impressive gardens and parking.

The Gothic style of the listed mansion, the elaborate details in the foyer, the vaulted ceilings, the stone walls and the unique stained glass windows steal the show. It is available either furnished with some of the singer’s artwork hanging on the walls, or not. It went up for rent last week and has already attracted “a lot of interest,” Garber says, adding that Boy George chose to rent it because he travels frequently for concerts.
