Belmaine House

Belmaine House is a rather large town house at the corner of Curzon and South Audley Street, Mayfair, London. It was build by the Honorable Charles Belmaine, the grandfather of the current Viscount Torrington in the Rococo style and has passed into his possession after the death of his grandmother, Isabella Belmaine, née du Plessis in 1808.

As Lord Torrington is rarely in London, it has not been renovated and is a beautiful if rather outdated example of a French-influenced mid-18th century upper class town house.

Its main attractions are the central staircase, a well-appointed music room with some very fine examples of early Chippendale furniture and the large assembly room, later used as a formal ball room, with its faux-marble pilasters and allegorical mural paintings.
