1 bed Flat For Sale £1,150,000
This light-filled one-bedroom apartment is located close to the centre of Kentish Town in the elegant No.1 Prince of Wales Road building. Originally built in 1929 as premises for the North London Polytechnic, the building was converted into apartments in 1998 to a riba-award winning design by architects Allies and Morrison. Formerly home to a prominent art dealer, this elegant apartment has also recently been featured in the World of Interiors.
The Tour
The 1,101 sq ft ground floor apartment is accessed via a large communal lobby with internal courtyards. The main living space is arranged in an open plan framed by double-height ceilings, painted steel trusses and a series of floor-to-ceiling factory windows with original Crittal frames. This is arguably the apartment’s most impressive space, where its significant volume and light pair beautifully with calming neutral tones and simple solid Canadian oak floorboards. A compact kitchen with sleek white splashbacks and bespoke units adjoins this space, and elegant Victorian-style radiators can be found throughout.
Nestled to the left of the plan – just off the living room – is an expansive study with a floor-to-ceiling library. Formerly a second bedroom, this space has been opened to the living room to create a palpable sense of flow and harmony. The master bedroom is quietly situated to the rear, where more Crittal windows flood the space with light and a large wall of bespoke shelving provides plenty of storage. Off the bedroom, there is a spacious walk-in wardrobe.
Outdoor Space
Within the grounds are communal lawns and raised beds for growing vegetables. The apartment has two designated spaces, one within the gated parking courtyard and another space within the underground car park.
The Area
Prince of Wales road runs east to west between Belsize Park, Chalk Farm and Kentish Town. The apartment is located at the eastern end close to Kentish Town West station (London Overground) and the green spaces of Talacre Park. Kentish Town Underground station is a short walk and runs Northern Line and Thameslink services for quick access to the City. It is within easy reach of the shops, cafes and restaurants on the high street and the nightlife of Chalk Farm and Camden Town. The larger green spaces of Primrose Hill, Regent’s Park and Hampstead Heath are close by.
Tenure: Leasehold
Lease Length: Approx. 101 years remaining
Service Charge: Approx. £2500 per annum
