The residence, in Downing Street in London, was built alongside the official residence of the Prime Minister at Number 10 in 1682. The first Chancellor to live there was Henry Petty-Fitzmaurice in 1806, but Number 11 did not become the Chancellor's official residence until 1828.It is currently the official residence of Philip Hammond, who was appointed as Chancellor by Prime Minister Theresa May in July 2016.
