From the outside, this unassuming three-floor home designed and built by Hugo Tugman at Tugman Partnership sits quietly among its Victorian counterparts. Set slightly back from the road, there’s an immediate feeling of privacy here. Through electric gates, a driveway leads to a secluded courtyard, with stool seating under a window counter – the perfect spot for a morning coffee.
Inside, contemporary interiors by Designed by Woulfe are ready to impress. A triple-height void commands attention in the standout communal space and offers a sightline up to the sky. Configured for modern living, seating and dining areas flow seamlessly into one another. A sunken TV snug with a large, curved sofa sits beneath a cosy nook. Just opposite, a circular dining table seats six and overlooks a patio garden. A mottled brass effect wall partially screens the kitchen beyond. Designed by Roundhouse, the sleek, streamlined space will suit keen cooks. A glass ceiling invites additional light in from the floor above, while concertina windows open onto the al fresco breakfast bar, blurring boundaries between inside and out.
Also, on this floor, a study with a desk and a pull-out day bed for an occasional visitor, as well as a cloakroom, and a boot and utility room – ideal for freshening up after muddy walks in Queen’s Park.
Three bedrooms are found on the first floor, off a landing with sink-in cloud armchairs by Graham and Greene for unwinding with a book or a game of chess. Pared-back design and luxurious soft furnishings unite each space – there’s a double, a single with a desk, and a smart twin with a sleek en suite shower room. In the family bathroom, a burnished feature wall backdrops an inviting freestanding bathtub.
Saving the best until last, the principal suite awaits on the top floor. A bright and airy space, an entire wall of glazing folds away onto a glass-floored terrace. Its en suite is equally considered, complete with a generous walk-in shower.
