Bassett Road

A lateral three-bedroom apartment for sale that marries heritage proportions with refined character.

On a coveted North Kensington road, this blonde-brick detached Victorian Villa benefits from a sense of privacy; blossoming trees, classic stone balustrade and a cast-iron gate. Beyond its column-fronted portico, a three-bedroom period conversion depicts an effortless dialogue between past and present.

Stepping directly into the home’s social heart, a bespoke kitchen sits to one side of the double-fronted layout. Cooking, dining or socialising – there’s an uplifting air courtesy of a colossal sash window. Calacatta marble splashbacks, volcanic rock counters and a one-of-a-kind extractor form a stylish culinary backdrop, while state-of-the-art appliances and a double oven enable effortless culinary endeavours. Linen chandeliers add a layer of ambiance to the breakfast bar – a contemporary contrast to the restored original features.

Follow ornate cornicing through to the reception room, its south-west-facing position washing natural light across a bioethanol marble fireplace. A symphony of muted earthy tones, the bespoke flooring design takes centre stage here. Nestled between bedrooms to the opposite side, a versatile pocket of privacy is ideal as a home office or a cosy kids snug.

Arranged across the rear of the apartment, three bedrooms are soothing in design. The spacious principal bedroom embodies an effortless style – all dusky hues, curved archways and handmade bespoke storage. An open archway guides into the en suite, complete with a bathtub and dual vanity.  A calming air continues through two further bedrooms, each a peaceful place to unplug. Serving these rooms are two shower rooms with sophisticated design – think Zellige tiles, concrete sinks and micro-cement flooring.

The home additionally benefits from underfloor heating, new boilers and entirely updated plumbing and electrics throughout.
