2 bed Flat For Sale £950,000
This beautiful two-bedroom split-level apartment near Golborne Road glows with the warmth of the gypsum plaster that cocoons the space. The steep pitch of the roof has been inventively incorporated into the living space to allow for a suspended mezzanine hovering at the top of this striking Edwardian terrace. Great attention to detail runs throughout, establishing a polished finish with a rich variety of materials. A secluded balcony at the rear catches the afternoon sun. The apartment is wonderfully placed for bustling Golborne Road and White City.
The Tour
St. Quintin Gardens is a striking garden square characterised by the clean lines of its stock brick and stuccoed frontages. The apartment sits across the top two floors of a grand Edwardian building with deep sash windows and ornate stucco detailing. The entrance is approached through a well-maintained communal hallway.
The apartment opens straight to a stairwell surrounded by rich teal walls, a dynamic contrast to the exposed gypsum plaster visible above, which draws the eye up through the space. The soft hues of the plaster establish a unifying palette throughout the apartment’s flowing layout. The stairwell weaves around to the kitchen, which has unexpected volume. Here, the ceiling has been taken back to the roofline, creating an angular pitch above the whole room. Birch ply cabinetry runs along the righthand wall, topped by a marble worktop and bookended by striking matt black lights. A long dining space runs parallel at the front of the plan, bathed in light from the generous wooden sash windows. Herringbone parquet runs across the floors exaggerating the dimensions of the room.
Exposed beams above the dining space outline the most striking feature, a suspended living room hovering in the rafters above. Stairs run beside the exposed brick flue up to this almost secret sitting room. The stepped stock brick has been exposed, revealing the building’s original bones while creating a contemporary textural finish. A large skylight draws light into this level.
The main bedroom sits on the same level as the kitchen and overlooks the quiet rear gardens that snake around the square. A large sash window and exposed brick fireplace balance the space. The second bedroom is slightly offset from this level by a short run of stairs. A calming and secluded area, it is a generous double with direct access to the private balcony at the rear. Deep wool carpets by Alternative Flooring run underfoot in both bedrooms..
The bathroom has been cleverly concealed beneath the mezzanine. Here, a frosted pane of glass set into the ceiling drawing in light from the skylight upstairs. Exquisite finishes have established an opulent space with a separate bath and walk-in shower trimmed with brass fixtures and fittings.
Outdoor Space
The apartment has a private balcony at the rear overlooking the leafy treetops of neighbouring gardens and catching the afternoon sun. This wonderfully quiet space has ample room for a table and chairs and could be adorned with planters.
The Area
St. Quintin Gardens is wonderfully placed for the shops, cafes and restaurants of Golborne Road. This bustling high street is home to many local favourites, including Golborne Wine & Deli, l'Etoile de Sous, Lisboa Delicatessen (renowned for its pastel de nata) and plenty of antique and furniture shops. This beautiful street begins to dovetail with Portobello Road and Notting Hill to the south, where the architect owner designed the beautiful restaurant Gold.
Nearby, the recently renovated Television Centre is at the centre of an exciting regeneration of the area, with independent restaurants such as Kricket, Flying Horse Coffee, a cinema and a branch of the Soho House members’ club, White City House. The Broadcaster, pub and rooftop bar overlooks this exciting new district with far-reaching views across the city.
Wormwood Scrubs nature reserve is a short walk away, offering rambles across the open common and many sports facilities.
White City and Ladbroke Grove are equidistant, about 15 minutes on foot, connecting to the Central and Hammersmith and City lines, respectively. The area is well-served by bus routes.
