Absolute privacy is a luxury only a few can afford. For the super-rich, low-key living in the suburbs doesn’t always prove a reassuring option as it might for even A-list celebrities, forcing many to spend millions on establishing a veil between themselves and prying eyes or the paparazzi. Luckily for them, residential property agents and luxury hoteliers across the world are offering privacy as one of their ultimate amenities alongside 24-hour services, fitness and wellness facilities and on-site members clubs and restaurants.
Developments in the world’s richest cities are providing homes with state-of-the-art amenity specifications with privacy in mind, offering residents what is effectively a completely secluded private members club in bustling urban locations. Private members clubs have been at the heart of affluent metropolitan society for hundreds of years, particularly in London. Boodle’s and Brooks’s, for example, have been operating in the same way since the mid-18th century. Now, prestigious residential developments are pioneering the same level of comfort and service in the style of these exclusive hang-outs with the added luxury of owning a home in some of London’s most coveted developments.
