3 rooms flat of 238m² in London

Overlooking South Kensington’s St Jude’s Church to the front and a verdant garden square to the rear, this three-bedroom triplex apartment is enveloped in a sense of peaceful seclusion. Thanks to an extensive renovation, the home now stands as a showpiece of refined interior design; expect custom finishes and sleek technology that make a feature of its smart period framework. Outside, a soaring heritage façade features decorative mouldings, cast-iron railings and a grand portico entrance. Beyond its handsome exterior, take the lift to the first floor where an expansive double-height reception room makes a bold first impression. Solid oak flooring and pale walls offer a neutral framework for the space, which is bathed in light through two large sash windows. The eye is cast upwards across the 5.13 metre-high ceilings and mezzanine library level, while the floor is subtly zoned between lounging and dining. Technology is discreetly integrated here, from comfort cooling to overhead audio systems. The open-plan kitchen and dining room has a quietly sophisticated feel. A stone island centres the culinary space, which is surrounded by handmade soft-close joinery and hi-tech appliances. Natural light beams through a series of windows, while a set of oak steps leads out to the private roof terrace. Smart decking, cast-iron railings and modern garden furniture are backdropped by towering trees from the leafy garden square – which residents can enjoy access to. It’s a tranquil al fresco setting that’s tailor-made for London’s sunny days, complete with a Weber barbecue for outdoor entertaining. The bedrooms are accessed by the lift or a fair faced concrete spiral staircase, ascending upstairs with architectural prowess. On the third floor, the principal bedroom suite is crafted with greyscale walls and upholstery, gently lit through a pair of sash windows. Its en suite bathroom is a stylish affair with Carrara marble floors, a bespoke walnut vanity, freestanding bathtub and underfloor heating. Next door, there’s a walk-in wardrobe complete with custom-fitted wardrobes – and an additional bathroom suite attached. Two guest bedrooms – one of which enjoys an en suite bathroom – are similarly modish, with individually-painted walls and custom wardrobes. Completing the second floor is a family room and cinema, as well as the mezzanine library area – finished with full-height bookshelves.
