The apartment unfolds behind a London stock brick façade, which is punctuated with ornate red brick corbelling and stucco detailing. A low wall provides privacy from the street, with a short path leading to the front door. A beautifully planted front garden lies to the right.

The Grand Tour 

The flat is arranged across the ground floor. The well-proportioned reception room lies to the front of the plan and is illuminated by a trio of sash windows that form a wide bay, filling the space with a wonderful quality of light. A chimney breast with deep, recessed shelving on either side provides a lovely focal point to the room. Original floorboards run underfoot throughout, uniting the beautifully finished set of spaces.

A generous dual aspect kitchen sits at the rear of the plan, bathed in natural light by virtue of its west-facing aspect. Simple cabinetry finished in a pared-back eggshell blue is contrasted by rattan elements coupled with a wooden work surface. Geometric tiling on the splashbacks provides a subtle contemporary sensibility.

The main bedroom is beautifully proportioned. It is a bright space with a bespoke floor-to-ceiling wardrobe that makes excellent use of the generous ceiling heights. The walls are lined in a subtle, Moorish-inspired paisley wallpaper. The second bedroom lies beyond; currently arranged as a nursery, it has been decorated with a simple, restrained palette and can easily accommodate a double bed. The bathroom has terracotta painted floorboards underfoot and vintage tiling with a floral motif on the walls. The hardware is traditionally Edwardian in inspiration and includes an overhead shower.

A self-contained home-office lies to the rear of the home and can be accessed from the street via an alley. It is the perfect home office and supplied with electricity. The walls are finished in polished plaster, resulting in a cocooning, inspiring space.

The Great Outdoors

The garden extends 35ft to the rear of the home, which also benefits from a large side return that provides space for a shed and bike storage. A secluded space, it has been recently landscaped and forms two distinct zones; the first is patioed and is perfect for alfresco dining, while the central area is wilder and has extensive maturing planting. It receives strong light throughout the day thanks to its westerly aspect and has a real sense of openness, due to its size and the size of neighbouring plots, which result in the space not being overlooked. Please note, however, that whilst there is no access from the above property, there is a right of use for recreational purposes only.
