Bassett Road

On a sought-after North Kensington street, this blonde-brick villa benefits from a sense of privacy. Beyond its column-fronted portico, a lateral two-bedroom period conversion brings a sympathetic refresh to a traditional home.

Stepping directly into the home’s social heart, a one-of-a-kind kitchen sits to one side of the double-fronted layout. Cooking, dining or socialising – there’s an animated air courtesy of the room’s colossal sash window. Calacatta marble splashbacks, volcanic rock counters and a bespoke extractor form a captivating culinary backdrop, while state-of-the-art appliances and a double oven enable effortless culinary adventures. Linen chandeliers add a layer of ambiance to the breakfast bar – a relaxed spot to catch the morning sun over breakfast.

In the reception room, a south-west-facing positioning washes natural light across a symphony of muted, earthy tones. Abstract art by Ginette Fiandaca styles the walls, while a floral George Smith sofa offers a setting to admire the black marble fireplace. Nestled between bedrooms to the opposite side, sky-lit sage tones bring calm to a cosy snug.

Arranged across the rear of the apartment, two bedrooms are soothing in design. The spacious principal bedroom is all dusky hues and curving archways, featuring handmade bespoke storage and a super-King sized bed. Through an open archway, the indulgent en suite bathroom beckons with a generous bathtub and dual vanity. A calming air continues through the second bedroom, a peaceful place to unplug served by a sophisticated shower room – think Zellige tiles, a concrete sink and micro-cement flooring.

The home additionally benefits from a study, plus underfloor heating throughout.
