Spencer HouseSpencer House, built in 1756-66 for the first Earl Spencer, an ancestor of Diana, Princess of Wales (1961-97), is London's finest surviving eighteenth-century town house.
This magnificent private palace, still owned by the Spencer family, has regained the full splendor of its late eighteenth-century appearance after a painstaking ten-year restoration undertaken by RIT Capital Partners plc, the current leaseholders. Situated in the heart of St. James's with magnificent views over Green Park, Spencer House was recoginzed as one of the most opulent private residences ever built in London and was often the setting for lavish entertainment in the eighteenth-century, as it is today.
