A former gentlemen’s club will be turned into a £250 million Piccadilly palace, complete with a vast underground swimming pool complex, after developers got the go-ahead.
Cambridge House which once housed the In & Out Club — known formally as the Naval and Military —will become a 45-room family home in a three-year renovation by the billionaire Reuben brothers. These computer-generated images show the pool, ballroom and drawing room.
The house will have 60,000 sq ft of living space, about 40 times more than a typical London family house.
Peter Wetherell, of Wetherell Estates, said houses in Mayfair and Belgravia were turned into commercial buildings during the Second World War bombings, but many of those embassies, offices and clubs were now moving to Nine Elms.
