The first of these rooms is a perfect blend of warmth and elegance, with a beautifully restored black iron fireplace serving as its striking focal point.

A glazed door at the far end takes you into the garden, while an architectural feature radiator and cleverly integrated storage under the stairs add both function and charm.
Moving through to the kitchen, you’ll find a space perfect for food enthusiasts. Matte black cabinetry spans the width of the room, neatly concealing integrated appliances beneath a bold, modern aesthetic. Track lighting illuminates the space, while a vaulted ceiling and three well-placed windows flood the room with natural light. On the opposite side, crisp white cabinetry provides contrast, accompanied by a handy breakfast bar—perfect for quick meals or a morning coffee. A large double oven awaits those who love to cook, and with a built-in larder, there’s no shortage of storage for spices, sauces, and pantry essentials.

The second bedroom, smaller yet equally inviting, offers the perfect setup for a guest room or a stylish home office.
The bathroom, designed with simplicity and elegance in mind, features a crisp white suite that exudes a sense of calm and cleanliness.
Step outside into the garden, and you’ll find a lovingly curated green oasis. Raised beds, brimming with carefully tended vegetables, showcase the time and care taken by the current owners.

A WORD FROM THE OWNER....

"One of our favourite things about this location is the beautiful park only 5 minutes away which our dog loves even more than we do. It's a lovely and safe street, and we have great neighbours on both sides. It's also so convenient with commuting options for multiple TFL lines - the Elizabeth Line and District Line, plus Overground, and a great selection of shops just a short walk away on Katherine Road.

We love cooking and entertaining for our friends and family, so we're really going to miss the kitchen - it's the largest we've ever had and we've made some really memorable meals here. The Garden too, it's been such an oasis and also a really flexible space for alfresco dining - nestled amongst mature planting, vegetables and a decades-old grapevine which wraps around more than ten metres of the garden perimeter and provides a bountiful green canopy."
