Charing Cross, London, SW1A 2DX, United Kingdom
Set on a row of immaculately-preserved period terraces, this five-bedroom home is configured with a modern eye attuned to family life. Its yellow brick exterior is punctuated with dark fencing and window frames — a precursor to the bold interior aesthetic within. Wood floors draw you into the open-plan heart of the home, where there’s a sense of flow between the ground floor’s thoughtfully zoned areas. At one end, a bay window is a welcoming spot for dining; in the room’s centre, a charcoal-coloured sofa is backdropped by eye-catching artwork; at the other end, the kitchen is a stylish setting with a glossy-topped island and integrated appliances. Two walls are fitted with floor-to-ceiling glazing that floods the space with light, one of which opens out onto the garden. It’s a peaceful urban oasis, complete with a dining table and high-tech grill. The principal bedroom suite is located on the first floor, a calming setting with pared-back tones and a pair of sash windows. Large wardrobes are a neat storage solution and its ensuite bathroom vaunts a dual vanity and inviting bathtub. Four additional bedrooms and three further bathrooms are spread across the lower-ground, first and second floors — each with a considered palette of colours and expansive channels of light. There’s large eaves storage accessed from the top-floor bedroom suite, as well as a roof terrace that gazes across the quiet residential enclave. Location: The area is famed for its peaceful tree-lined streets of well-kept period homes, with a keen sense of community and excellent transport links. Grade ii-listed Roundwood Park attracts walkers across its grassy pathways, with the Friends of Roundwood Park organising activities and cultural events that bring the neighbourhood together. Stroll east towards Kensal Rise and you’ll find a host of independent businesses with a bohemian feel. Check out local favourites Brooks for fresh meat and fish, Parlour for brunch, and Sacre Cuore for pizza on nearby Chamberlayne Road. Conclude an evening at The Lexi, a coveted independent cinema.
