Malden Road

Three-bedroom Malden Road charms with its organic materials, reams of natural light and welcoming, open-plan living areas. The home’s social heart is spread across lounging, cooking and dining areas, with a vast picture window that opens onto the private garden. Upstairs, the bedrooms continue the calming interior scheme, with large glazing, neat wardrobes and cosy furnishings. A stylish family bathroom, complete with a freestanding bath and walk-in shower, enhances the contemporary allure.

In a peaceful residential enclave between Belsize Park and Kentish Town, Malden Road makes a picturesque first appearance with wisteria climbing across its façade. Beyond the cast-iron railings, a staircase leads down to a front patio and the home’s front door. 

Bathed in natural light and with warm wood floors running underneath, the open-plan kitchen, dining and living room forms the inviting social heart. At one end of the space, a cosy sofa and wicker armchairs are poised for conversation. The eye is drawn to the marble-topped kitchen island – finished in a rich green hue – which is illuminated by a series of pendant lights above. A skylight further illuminates the setting, while an exposed brick wall adds textural charm. The range oven is set for culinary creativity; gather friends around the wooden dining table and in warm weather, draw back the full-height glazing to the private garden beyond. 

Upstairs, three bedrooms are calming and considered spaces. Large sash windows fill the principal bedroom with sunlight, while two matching bookshelves are filled with page-turners. In one of the guest bedrooms, a full-height picture window enjoys a tranquil view of the garden. In the other, a desk area is located beneath a mezzanine level, with a ladder leading up to the bed. Serving these spaces is the contemporary family bathroom, introduced through a stained-glass door. Stylish finishes range from the walk-in shower, freestanding bath and dual vanity, wrapped in a variety of marbled, speckled and terracotta-toned tiling. An additional WC completes the home.
