Jardines de Harlesden

Creative flair and an uplifting atmosphere. This three-bedroom Harlesden home is all cohesive colours, polished architecture and reams of natural light — plus a private garden.

The façade of this three-bedroom property quietly stands out against its neighbours, with charcoal-black window frames, bold stock brick and a manicured front garden. Its well-considered exterior is a precursor to the flawless architecture that lies within; across its three storeys, Harlesden Gardens has been imagined with a refreshing material palette, bold structural design and modern technologies.

The front door opens to a draped sage curtain, which pulled back reveals the voluminous reception area. Warm parquet wood floors are contrasted with a greyscale-toned ceiling — engineered with a double-height void and a glass chandelier. Furniture is eclectic and sophisticated, arranged with socialising in mind. The whitewashed walls are a sleek feature that double as a cinema screen, thanks to an integrated projector.

There’s continuous flow through an archway to the kitchen and dining room. Things take a trendy turn, with inky-blue cabinets, glossy marble worktops, a wood-framed central island and state-of-the-art Mercury range oven. The side return is configured as a glass box, with large window panels filling the space with natural light. A door leads open to the private garden, featuring immaculately laid timber floors. At the rear, a wood-clad summer house is introduced through full-height sliding doors; it’s a tranquil setting for guests or quiet working hours.

Find the principal bedroom on the home’s second floor, where a range of French doors, Velux windows and skylights infuse the space with calming sunlight. At one side of the room behind a curtain, there’s a sculptural freestanding bathtub. At the other side, wood floors transition to monochromatic diamond tiling in the en suite bathroom. Nestled into the eaves, there’s a cosy snug area.

The first-floor guest bedrooms are arranged around the glass-framed ceiling void. In the double room, a dark four-poster bed is a bold stamp against the pale green walls. The same modern palette exists in the single room, featuring a blush pink armchair. Completing the level is a contemporary bathroom, crafted with oversized stone tiles and a rainfall shower.
