Highlever Road

The heritage framework of this four-bedroom North Kensington home for sale is affectionately enhanced with marine hues and bespoke joinery.

An immaculately-presented front garden is a precursor to the finely-tuned aesthetic that characterises this four-bedroom family home for sale. From the hallway, enter a formal reception room. At one end of the space, bay windows – complete with integrated seating – cast soft sunlight inside. Guided by period proportions, full-height shelving is finished in a teal shade and sits either side of an original marble fireplace. Sweeping blonde wood floors offer seamless flow from here into the open-plan kitchen and dining room. A spectrum of blue sits characterfully across the shaker-style cabinets, metro tiles and window shutters. Reams of light is filtered through full-height French doors and a skylight, accentuating the room’s large proportions and uplifting tonal palette. A marble-topped island and rangemaster oven are set for culinary creativity, with a large eating area imagined for entertaining. Outside, the garden is zoned between the patio and a lawn, with a wood fire oven at the rear. Framed by brick walls adorned with ivy, there’s a real sense of quietude here.

The home’s characteristic colours and feeling of calm ensues in the lower-ground floor.  A reception room and self-contained kitchen is filled with soft light through two large windows and a French door, which opens out to a balcony. A wall of fitted shelving recalls the teal hue of the first reception room, neatly engineered with a desk and television space. Beyond, find a guest bedroom brightly illuminated through bay windows. Its en suite bathroom has been artfully finished with blue metro tiles and a large rainfall shower. With plenty of storage and a spacious footprint, this storey could be imagined as a separate studio apartment.

With pale woven carpets and swathes of sunlight, the principal bedroom is a minimalist sanctum complete with floor-to-ceiling wardrobes. Both this room and a guest bedroom have direct access to a family-sized bathroom, showcasing parquet floors, a dual vanity and large marble-topped bath. Also located on this floor, a peaceful study enjoys morning light through a sash window. Upstairs, a third bedroom enjoys access to an en suite shower room – surrounded by an abundance of eaves storage.
