Between 2009 and 2011, the embassy was converted into a private residence.
A former Italian embassy in London’s exclusive Belgravia district is on the market for £21 million. Tatler writes about it.
The mansion, built at the turn of the 20th century, covers an area of 7,948 square meters. ft., was the Italian embassy for a century. At one time it was bought for the dictator Benito Mussolini.
One of the townhouses nearby served as the inspiration for the residence of Hugo Drax, the antagonist in James Bond’s famous confrontation in Moonraker. Drax is named after Sir Reginald Drax, a classmate of Bond author and creator Ian Fleming. Fleming lived near Ebury Street from 1945 to 1953.
After the war, the mansion was converted into the office of the Italian military attaché embassy. The attaché represents personnel working in the Italian Armed Forces. In 2005 they left this place.
Between 2009 and 2011, the embassy was converted into a private residence. There is a cinema in the basement, as well as staff quarters, guest cloakrooms and Regency marble fireplaces.
