House For Sale £850,000
This modern interpretation of a Victorian townhouse is located on Humbolt Road in Fulham. The owners have created an impressive two-bedroom home arranged over five floors, with a modern, pared-back aesthetic and a focus on natural light. Humbolt House is a short walk from the Thames Path and the retail destination of Lillie Road is within easy reach.
The Tour
The brick-render fronted home sits behind a parapet wall, which is punctuated by a lateral timber slat fence and gate. Entrance to the house is through this gate and to a timber door that opens into a stairwell filled with light. Cantilevered open stairs with solid oak treads lead to the multiple levels of the house.
The bright ground-floor kitchen and dining area are finished in a neutral colour scheme, with Quartz marble effect worktops, white walls and large floor tiles grounding the space. There is a palpable sense of spaciousness, in large part due to a double-height section roof that sits above large glazed doors. These open onto a planted patio, which can also be used as a dining area. There is also a WC on this level.
Stairs descend to the lower ground floor where a workspace has been created at the foot of the stairwell. Pocket doors open to a double bedroom which is served by three well-placed lightwells, and sliding glass doors that open to another patio. There is a spacious yet cosy modern bathroom with large marble-effect tiles on the floor and walls and a substantial lightwell that draws in natural light. A control room for the integrated Sonos, Rako lighting, and air purification systems completes the lower ground level.
The first floor is home to a generous living room where the neutral colour scheme continues. Two traditional windows allow in plenty of natural light, as does a narrow lightwell that arches over the seating area from wall to wall. There is a shower and WC on the second floor along with a home working hub, while on the third floor lies a light-filled double bedroom with four Velux windows, two facing East and two facing West.
Outdoor Space
A spacious planted patio is situated off the ground floor kitchen and there is another patio leading off the lower ground floor bedroom. There are numerous green spaces in the immediate vicinity including Bishops Park and the historic West Brompton Cemetery, with Hyde Park a mere 15-minute cycle away.
The Area
Humbolt House is moments away from Lillie Road, a renowned retail destination home to a wide variety of antique, artefacts and decorative arts dealers, including Henry Saywell, Quindry, Puckhaber and Maison Artefact. The iconic River Cafe is a short walk west and the Thames River is within easy reach.
The home is well located for the Underground network, with the nearest underground stations being Barons Court, West Kensington, West Brompton and Fulham Broadway (Circle, District, Overground and Southern lines). The A4/M4 is close by for fast routes to the West and Heathrow Airport.
