The front door of the apartment opens into a generous hallway used as a useful entrance space. Solid wood floorboards extend throughout, imbuing the home with tonal warmth. Thoughtfully arranged and carefully finished, the interiors are enriched by an abundance of natural light.

From the hallway, large French doors painted with rich 'Railings' by Farrow and Ball open into the inviting kitchen and breakfast room – the heart of the house, well-appointed for both daily life and entertaining. A south-easterly light bathes the space, which is centred around a generous island. Bespoke white cabinets are arranged in a practical L-shape, topped with Arabescato quartz worktops. There is also a butler sink with a brass DeVOL tap and matching fixtures, and a Britannia range cooker.

The reception room lies at the front of the plan, organised to accommodate both sitting and dining areas. Walls are painted in a soft 'Green Smoke' by Farrow and Ball. On one side, a cast-iron fireplace with decorative tiled surrounds adds warmth and character. A tall box bay window draws in natural light and is the perfect spot for a dining table.

A bright and peaceful guest bedroom is next door, with high ceilings, egg and dart cornicing, and timber floorboards. There is a guest shower room accessible from the hallway, with floral 'Artemis' wallpaper by House of Hackney and marble chequerboard floors. A walk-in shower is enclosed by a Crittal glass screen and lined with beautiful 'Hoxton Green' gloss porcelain tiles from Mandarin Stone.

A staircase with a sisal runner ascends to the top floor, where two spacious bedrooms lie. The principal bedroom is flooded with light from windows set in a box bay. There is a large cast-iron fireplace on one side, and an en-suite bathroom with a bold, floral wallpaper. The charming third bedroom is perfectly serene, making it an ideal space for a child’s bedroom or home office. Its pitched ceiling creates a voluminous atmosphere, adding to the room’s allure.

Above is a large attic providing additional storage space.

From the landing, a door opens onto a spectacular south-easterly decked terrace positioned between the two floors. Enclosed by brick walls, the space feels wonderfully private and secluded. It can easily accommodate both dining and lounging areas, perfect for barbecues, summer gatherings or quiet reading. A jasmine tree softens the edges, while far-reaching views over the surrounding rooftops add a sense of openness and connection to the city.

Dean Road is within walking distance of the green open space of Gladstone Park with its café, tennis courts, rose garden and playgrounds. Less than 10 minutes' drive away is Queen’s Park, with more green space, tennis courts, and playgrounds.

The area is also home to three great pharmacies and a range of independent shops, including health food shop Walnut, which stocks organic produce, a great butcher, O’Farrell’s, and a flower shop by the Underground station. There are several supermarkets in easy reach. Restaurants include a highly rated fish and chip shop and brilliant sushi at Sushi Masa. Beer and Burger is great, and Cavallino is an Italian deli/restaurant serving great piadina.

There are several good schools in the area, including Crickets Montessori, Salusbury Primary School, Convent of Jesus and Mary Infant School and St Mary Magdalene.

Willesden Green Underground Station is around the corner from the home for Jubilee line services into the West End. Cricklewood station is a mile from the house. It runs regular Thameslink services to London St Pancras International (three stops) and Farringdon (four stops) for fast connections to Heathrow and Bond Street.
