Denbigh Road

A palatial footprint unfurls at this impressive six-bedroom home for sale, envisaged for family life.

With its red and yellow brick façade, large bay windows and ornate stone coving, Denbigh Road makes an inviting first impression. Its well-preserved exterior – complete with off-street parking – hints at the immaculate finishes that await inside, where period features are underscored with striking contemporary interventions.

Living accommodation is spread over three floors. Graphic black and white floor tiles draw you into a central hallway, off which sit two ground floor receptions rooms. In the first, a more formal sitting room, granite grey walls create a bold backdrop. Wainscotting adds a touch of period charm, echoed in the fireplace and cornicing. Painted in white, the ceiling pops against the darker colour palette, accentuating the lofty proportions of the room.

On the other side of the hall, double doors open onto a spectacular kitchen, dining and family room – a versatile space that’s designed for entertaining. Herringbone floors sweep across its sprawling expanse, which is bathed in natural light via three lightwells. A white marble island and breakfast bar acts as a focal point, illuminated by a trio of pendant lights that again draw attention to the impressive ceiling height. Form and function unite – note the range cooker and ample workspaces – while a separate utility and laundry room keeps clutter at bay.

A vast picture window frames views out onto the south-west facing garden. In the spring and summer months, the patio beyond serves as an extension of the internal living space – just slide back the wall of glazing. An office is tucked away at the back of the manicured garden, creating the ideal separation between work and home life.

All six bedrooms are elegant in style, with soft carpets and understated grey tones lending a hotel-like quality. Period details – from coving to marble fireplaces – elevate the finish. On the first floor, there’s a classic-meets-contemporary feel to the spacious guest suite. Its bathroom is similarly timeless in style – think crisp white walls, a deep tub and walk-in rainfall shower.

In contrast, the principal suite’s deep navy walls make a bold statement. Simultaneously striking and soothing, the space benefits from a well-appointed dressing room and a marble-clad bathroom designed with relaxation in mind. It shares the second floor with two further bedrooms, one of which is currently used as a study, and a shower room.

Ample storage space throughout the house – including a store and attic – caters for the demands of family life.
