2 bed Flat For Sale £1,100,000
A calming, considered home has been created within a period framework at St Quintin Gardens. This newly renovated two-bedroom apartment has been transformed by architect Felix von Bechtolsheim.
A teal stairwell ascends from the first-floor entrance to a half landing, where paint gives way to exposed plaster. Contrasted with white frames and skirting boards, this pared-back palette flows into the second-floor kitchen and dining area.
In the main social space, three south-facing windows draw in channels of light while double-height ceilings create an uplifting atmosphere. Herringbone wooden flooring and marble countertops pair with the pastel pink walls, creating tones and textures reminiscent of a Mediterranean farmhouse.
The simplicity of the colour palette allows architectural details, like the white-painted steel beams, to take centre stage. A brick chimney breast adds another layer of texture and an additional reference to the building’s past.
Playing with positive and negative space, original brickwork has been carefully revealed to create a triangular void – a heritage centrepiece for the third-floor mezzanine reception. At the very top of the home, this room benefits from a generous skylight.
The principal bedroom sits on the second floor, featuring a double-height ceiling and an exposed brick chimney breast that follows the line of the vaulted ceiling. A guest bedroom, accessed from the half landing, offers access to a private roof terrace – perfect for catching the afternoon sun. Both bedrooms are quiet and rear-facing with leafy views.
A family bathroom is hidden under the mezzanine level. Exposed plaster and overhead beams continue into this carefully considered space, which features a freestanding bath and gold taps. A frosted skylight provides privacy while channelling daylight from the mezzanine above.
This design-forward apartment combines double-height living with heritage features including the most intact pair of chimney breasts ever revealed by the architect. A boldly reimagined home, it speaks volumes of light, proportions and materiality.
St Quintin Gardens is an attractive, suburban corner of North Kensington near to both green open spaces and lively hotspots. A short walk takes you to Golborne Road. Pick up a coffee and pastel de nata from Lisboa Patisserie, head to dinner at one of the Layla’s Bakery supper clubs or pop into the Elgin for a drink. Slightly further afield are the bars and eateries of White City House. Wormwood Scrubs is just a five-minute walk away and perfect for a breath of fresh air, tennis and picnics. With White City and Latimer Road stations close by, the city is never far away.<br /><br />
