Old Brompton Road

Period proportions and contemporary design unite in this two-bedroom apartment for sale. Neutral tones and natural light abound.

A sense of harmony prevails at this bright second-floor apartment, styled with a contemporary twist on Art Deco design. Natural light is a recurring theme throughout. In the spacious living and dining room, sash windows line two sides of the room and illuminate a versatile space that can be zoned into areas for eating and relaxing. Neutral walls and herringbone floors create an understated backdrop, while panels of wainscoting and a grey and white veined marble fireplace add an elegant finish.

The reception room flows seamlessly into the kitchen, accessed via a wide opening that lends a semi open-plan feel. Dark green cabinetry provides ample storage and pops against the white walls. Integrated appliances, including a wine fridge, mean there’s everything at hand to satisfy the keenest cooks. There’s space for a table too, for less formal dining occasions.

The pared-back colour palette, wooden floors and fitted storage continue in the bedrooms. In the principal suite, panelling adds a sense of luxury. The en suite has a graphic feel, with black and white tiles, matte black fixtures and a Crittall-style shower screen adding an industrial edge. From here, access the generously proportioned decked terrace. A quiet oasis within the city, it’s large enough to accommodate an outdoor dining table and seating. The second bedroom is similarly light and well-appointed, with integrated wardrobes maximising the sense of space. In the main bathroom, rectangular tiles in an array of navy hues bounce the light around, while a wide ceramic basin and mirror-panelled wall add a spa-like feel.
