On a quiet road in village-like Barnes, a traditional Victorian frontage belies the contemporary home that awaits inside. Reimagined by Matteo Cainer Architecture, glass panels and minimalist, angular design offer a distinctive take on Piet Mondrian’s Neoplasticism.
Through the front door, a stone-floored hallway leads the way to the home’s social heart. A voluminous open-plan kitchen and dining room sits at the rear, its impressive proportions accentuated by enormous skylights and an expanse of Crittall glazing. Open the French doors to seamlessly integrate the space with the patio and garden beyond. The culinary setting is set to captivate, with crisp white walls, integrated appliances and a Quooker tap, as well as a walk-in pantry and coffee station.
Hidden behind a bookcase lies the first of the living spaces, where an expansive glass ceiling and south-facing outlook make for a light-soaked spot to enjoy a morning coffee. A study complete with a projector screen is considerately separated, creating a cosy snug for movie marathons.
A formal reception room at the front of the home, provides additional living space, illuminated by a large bay window. A period fireplace provides a focal point, while deep sofas and neutral hues ensure a comfortable feel.
Sleeping quarters are set across the upper levels, where the pared-back aesthetic continues. The peaceful principal bedroom suite occupies the second floor and is an inviting space to switch off. A marble-clad en suite bathroom, complete with rainfall shower and standalone bathtub, provides the ultimate place for a relaxing soak. If kicking back isn’t your thing, an exercise room on this floor means you can keep active.
On the first floor, accents of colour and period features are found in each of the guest rooms, ensuring character and charm flow throughout. One guest room enjoys an en suite bathroom featuring a rainfall shower, while a family bathroom serves the other bedrooms.
