Patio garden
With the Grand Union canal in strolling distance and celebrated local pub The Hero just around the corner, Sutherland Avenue is nestled in the heart of community-minded Maida Vale. Set in a redbrick Victorian conversion, this raised ground floor apartment’s period proportions impress instantly. Bright, airy and uplifting, the sweeping lateral living space is designed for both socialising and switching off. 

Four sets of floor-to-ceiling French doors frame views over the communal garden below. Step out onto the southeast-facing balcony to catch the sun throughout the day or take the steps down to the tranquil lawn, exclusively accessed by residents. 

This is a home that works in all seasons – from inside-out living in the spring and summer to cosy evenings in when the colder weather arrives. High, cornicing-trimmed ceilings and gallery-like white walls create a comfortable, considered backdrop year-round. 

There’s space to entertain, too. You can seat six around the Griseo Rosa marble dining table by Soho Home, while the kitchen is equipped to cater for any eventuality. Think double Miele ovens, a convection hob and ample storage, all elevated with marble surfaces. Pick up supplies from the delicatessens on nearby Formosa Street or let us organise a private chef. Mix a nightcap at the bar then sink into the tub armchairs to finish the night with a film. 

Dark parquet floors lead through to the bedroom via a spacious dressing area. Painted in soothing, neutral tones, the space has a calming relaxed feel. A lofty ceiling and a large bay window add to the laid-back atmosphere. Marble tiles bring a touch of luxury to the bathroom, which is flooded with natural light.
