The Phantomhive townhouse is the base of operations of the Phantomhive family in London. It is only used by members of the Phantomhive family during the Season or when they have to investigate a case in London, such as the Jack the Ripper and Sphere Music Hall Gatherings cases.

The security of the townhouse is dubious since Angelina Dalles, Grelle Sutcliff, and Lau were able to trespass the townhouse in search for tea.

History

From August to November 1888, Ciel Phantomhive stays with Sebastian Michaelis, Angelina Dalles, Lau, and Grelle Sutcliff in the townhouse as he was tasked by Queen Victoria to find the culprit behind the Jack the Ripper killings. During Ciel's stay, specifically on the last day of the Season, he and his companions attend a party hosted by Aleister Chamber to find out if he is Jack the Ripper.

Only a month after concluding the investigation on the Jack the Ripper case, Ciel and Sebastian have to return to London to look into yet another case: the mysterious Anglo-Indian Hangings. This time, Ciel and Sebastian are joined by the rest of the Phantomhive household as well as by Soma Asman Kadar and his butler Agni. And when it becomes apparent that Soma and Agni have no intention of leaving England and returning to Indian, Ciel puts them in charge of the townhouse.

In February 1889, Ciel and Sebastian briefly stay at the townhouse while investigating the correlation between the visits of the Noah's Ark Circus and a string of kidnappings.

They do not return to the townhouse until September 1889 when Queen Victoria orders Ciel to inspect the peculiar Sphere Music Hall which is, coincidentally, the last place where Ciel's fiancée Elizabeth Midford has been seen before her disappearance.

On November 15, 1889, while Ciel and Sebastian are away, the townhouse is attacked by two unknown assailants. The assailants manage to injure Soma and murder Agni who dies protecting his master. Some time later, Ciel and Sebastian return to the townhouse and find it in chaos, and their allies hurt and dead. Then, they search the building for any clues to determine if the attack was an act of revenge or an ordinary burglary. Eventually, they head to Ciel's bedroom where the words "Who stole the candy from my tummy?" were cut in the wall. Shortly afterward, Ciel and Sebastian leave the townhouse and bring Soma to Sieglinde Sullivan before returning to Phantomhive Manor.
