Madonna’s former London home for rent

A charming London mews house, formerly owned by Guy Ritchie, is now available to rent. The property, located on Queen’s Gate Mews, has a rich history, with Madonna reportedly moving in during the late 1990s, in the early years of their relationship.
The house has also been used as a filming location, featuring as Daniel Craig’s on-screen London home in the British crime thriller Layer Cake.
Today, the property remains stylish, offering a unique opportunity to rent a house with a star-studded past. Its white-painted brick façade and traditional fanlight with a horseshoe mounted above give a subtle nod to its equestrian past, originally used as a coach house in the 1860s.
The property spans 1,540 square feet across two floors, balancing Victorian charm with contemporary edge. It’s located just a short stroll from the V&A, the Natural History Museum, Hyde Park, and the Royal Albert Hall.
Inside, the interiors feel relaxed and effortlessly lived-in. The open-plan ground floor features rich timber flooring, warm earthy tones, and industrial-inspired detailing, including an exposed ventilation pipe that runs dramatically across the ceiling toward the Falcon range cooker.
The kitchen, understood to have been designed by Ritchie, is almost entirely made from stainless steel, offering the practical feel of a professional kitchen. An expansive arched sash window sits above the cream corner sofa, paired with a rustic wooden coffee table and a colorful kilim rug.

An antique mirror above the six-person dining table creates the illusion of a bigger room, while also reflecting the generously sized bookshelves in the separate reception room opposite. An additional guest toilet and utility room complete the ground floor.
Upstairs, the study, two bedrooms, and two bathrooms exchange industrial touches for softer textures. The principal suite features a softer palette, with light wooden floors, velvet upholstery, antique furniture, and a gallery wall hung from a picture rail.
The French doors, which open onto a Juliet balcony overlooking the cobbled mews below, allow for an abundance of natural light to fill the room. The main bathroom preserves one of the house’s most memorable architectural details, an exposed Victorian brick arch framing a freestanding bath, complemented by Carrara marble and mosaic marble flooring.
While Madonna may have taught us to express ourselves, this elegant mews house proves that sometimes the most stylish statement is made quietly.
The property is available to rent with Dexter’s.
