Hamilton Terrace

In this newly-refurbished one-bedroom apartment, well-preserved period architecture sets a refined canvas for contemporary design.

A double-fronted villa makes a handsome first impression as you walk down Hamilton Terrace, one of Maida Vale’s most esteemed addresses. Spread across the second floor of this stock-brick townhouse, a soothing lateral apartment is finished with pale tones and sleek materials against a smart heritage backdrop.

There’s a welcoming feel to the entrance hallway, crafted with tall ceilings and herringbone wood floors. A classic curved archway leads into the open-plan reception and dining room – a sun-filled space, courtesy of large sash windows. Pared-back walls are met with clean-line ceiling cornicing, while the floor space can be neatly zoned for dining and lounging respectively. Next door, the kitchen is a sleek affair with chequerboard floor tiles, marble worktops, muted mirrored splashbacks and hi-tech appliances.

The home’s sophisticated aesthetic continues in the double bedroom. Its neutral tonal palette is softly illuminated through a large sash window, while two full-height wardrobes provide neat storage. The bathroom is wrapped in oversized marble tiling, complete with a walk-in rainfall shower.
