House For Sale £950,000
London, London N15

Designed by architects Magri Williams, this three-bedroom terrace is a calm home and refuge from busy London life.

Following completion, the house was shortlisted for the national ‘Don’t Move, Improve!’ award (2019), and proved a hugely popular venue in Open House London, an organisation that champions exceptional architecture.

The renovation transformed the ground floor of the property; connecting all the spaces with a material palette of London stock-style brick, ash-white concrete, light clay walls and birch plywood. The tones of the external brick are further explored throughout the interior, creating a sense of cohesion.

Clayworks of Cornwall were contracted to achieve the desired light, textured patina on the interior walls, creating a unique and striking finish. The floor in the rear extension transitions from an ash-white polished concrete to a white square tile of many shades at the existing threshold, naturally arranged in a stack pattern – a response to the extension design.

Bespoke plywood joinery is installed in the kitchen, living area and staircase, which also adds warmth and softness to the space, and creates a good balance of textures in the home. As you climb the plywood finished staircase to the first floor, you are greeted by a beautiful bathroom with separate bath and shower. A standout feature is the picture window overlooking the garden.

The home offers two double bedrooms with wood flooring on the first floor; the front double has bespoke fitted wardrobes and double-glazed sash windows. The third bedroom, with plywood floor and stylish en-suite shower room, is located on the top floor. The whole space draws exceptional light through generously sized windows and skylights.

The rear garden is an effortless continuation of the kitchen, accessed via a pivot door with grey polished concrete flooring and cleverly designed slatted timber storage and shrub boxes.
