LONDON TOWNHOUSE AMID ‘TED LASSO’ SET SELLING FOR £4.5 MILLION
2 min
Fans of “Ted Lasso” take note: A lavish home in Richmond Green—a pocket of London that viewers of the much-loved Apple TV+ series will instantly recognize—has come to the market for £4.5 million (US$5.68 million).
Richmond Green and the townhouse’s immediate surroundings were a major filming location for the Emmy Award-winning show. Ted’s flat is around the corner; the local pub, where Ted and Coach Beard go to grab a pint, is just steps away; and the green itself, directly in front of the house, featured in plenty of scenes throughout the series.
The red-brick house, which dates to the mid-18th century, is a “fabulous example of Georgian architecture and craftsmanship,” said listing agent Peter Norgrove of Savills, which brought the home to the market earlier this week. Richmond Green is a historic village “immortalized as Henry VII’s former jousting ground” and now, as the set of the hit TV series, Norgrove added.

Set behind wrought iron railings, the four-bedroom property is loaded with period charm across its 3,698 square feet, from the high ceilings, fireplaces and ceiling cornicing to the window shutters, wide exposed floorboards and paneled hallway.
The sellers, who couldn’t be reached for comment, embarked on a “sympathetic renovation that has been carried out with great thought, depth of quality and attention to detail,” according to the listing.
There’s a drawing room that spans the full width of the house and features three floor-to-ceiling windows; a dining room; a media room; a bespoke kitchen with direct access onto the courtyard garden; a study; and four bedrooms including a sizable primary suite with views out over the Green.
The home last changed hands for £2.95 million in 2014, property records show.
