Chandos House, 2 Queen Anne Street, W1
At the northern end of Chandos Street, on Queen Anne Street, stands Chandos House, which was used for the ‘Greenwich Village’ party where Jack Reed (Warren Beatty) cuts a rug with Louise Bryant (Diane Keaton) in Beatty’s Oscar-winning Reds.
The house also became the London home of the Palmers (Imelda Staunton and Hugh Laurie) in Ang Lee’s Sense and Sensibility. After years of neglect, this Grade I-listed Robert Adam mansion, dating from 1769, was compulsorily purchased from the investment company which owned it, has been restored to its original splendour, and is owned by the Royal Society of Medicine. If you're a Jane Austen fan (or an Ang Lee fan or a Warren Beatty fan, for that matter) you can now hire the house for your wedding or social event.
