5 The Grove is a semi-detached house in Highgate, London. It is listed at Grade II on the National Heritage List for England.[1]
Originally built around 1688, it was rebuilt around 1933 by C. H. James, while retaining its general appearance. The house has three storeys and a basement and is built in red brick. Its interior has been substantially altered since its original construction.[1] During James's remodelling in the 1930s, several examples of early 18th-century wallpapers were found behind wooden panelling and were subsequently donated to the Victoria and Albert Museum.[2] Wooden railings enclose the front of the house, and a lantern surmounts the entrance.[1] Prior to his death in 2016, George Michael was the sole tenant.
In 2020, the house was bought for £19 million by Stephen Cameron and his wife, Clare Harrison, who had made £170 million from selling the medical PR firm Nucleus Global.[3]
