The Tour
Set back from the street behind a well-maintained front garden and a large driveway, the house boasts a classic London stock brick façade. A communal hallway leads to the flat’s private entrance, where a warm and inviting interior unfolds.
The grand reception room is a highlight of the home, featuring an original fireplace set against a striking feature wall. A west-facing bay window bathes the space in natural light, complementing the crisp white walls and sleek laminate wood flooring. Built-in storage cupboards provide ample space, while a dining area creates the perfect setting for entertaining or casual meals.
The kitchen is bright and contemporary, with white and grey cabinetry offering generous storage. Wooden worktops contrast beautifully with black floor tiles, and high-spec appliances—including a gas cooker, oven, fridge freezer, dishwasher, and washer-dryer—ensure convenience. A breakfast bar adds versatility, making it an ideal spot for morning coffee or quick meals.
The family-sized bathroom is designed for relaxation, featuring a jacuzzi-style bathtub within a stylish three-piece suite. White floor tiles and sand-toned splashback tiles create a fresh, serene atmosphere.
Descending to the lower ground level, two tranquil north-facing bedrooms await. Both maintain a simple yet elegant aesthetic with white walls and rustic wooden floors. Floor-to-ceiling built-in wardrobes enhance storage while maximizing light flow. One of the bedrooms features a frosted window facing the garden, adding an extra touch of privacy.
Outdoor Space
A private section of the expansive rear garden is reserved for this flat, featuring a shed and lush greenery. Mature plants and shrubs create a peaceful retreat—ideal for relaxing, working, or entertaining. The outdoor space is best suited for someone with a love for gardening or a willingness to cultivate their green thumb.
