Set within a red-brick and stucco townhouse close to South Kensington’s best offerings, this two-bedroom home captures the dialogue between past and present. Architectural updates amplify light and space, all while respecting the fabric of the original framework.
The open-plan living area has an effortless flow: oak herringbone floors run beneath soft, neutral walls; light pours in through twin south-facing sash windows. A black fireplace anchors the room – while the surrounding space flows naturally for dining, cooking or conversation.
The kitchen lies to the rear, conceived almost entirely bespoke. Custom solid wood cabinetry sits beneath a single sweep of stone – a countertop that sweeps up to form a splashback and frame for the shelving above. Integrated appliances are set discreetly within the joinery, keeping the design functional. A floating open-tread staircase adds a sculptural note, ascending to the home’s non-demised flat roof.
Elsewhere, two bedrooms share the same calm intention. In the principal, bespoke wardrobes line one wall, while sash windows open onto a small balcony. A generous bathroom serves both bedrooms, finished in ceramic tiles with a deep bathtub and walk-in shower.
The home further benefits from soundproofed floors, acoustic underlay and renewed insulation.
