1 room flat of 53m² in London

Behind a dusky red stucco façade, second-floor living is elevated in every sense. Light-filled and thoughtfully renovated, Blenheim Crescent makes an impeccable impression from the moment you step inside. Period proportions are the foundation here, but it’s the contemporary refinements that take the lead. Oak herringbone floors guide into an open-plan dining and reception space, where soft neutral tones are amplified by soaring ceilings and natural light that pours in through tall sash windows. These open to a private balcony – a quiet perch above the street. Flanking an Arabescato marble fireplace, bespoke joinery creates a considered focal point, while the kitchen is tucked subtly to one side. Grounded by rich brown cabinetry and Quartzite worktops, it’s fitted with Miele appliances and Lusso fixtures for an understated sense of grandeur. The bedroom takes a quieter tone: a south-facing window brings warmth and light to the muted palette, while fitted wardrobes wrap around the entrance to a refined en suite. Clad in Calacatta Amber marble with brushed gold fittings, the bathroom features a walk-in shower, underfloor heating and elegant details. Courtesy of a recent top-to-toe renovation, the home includes new sash windows and a new Worcester Bosch boiler.
