2 bed Flat For Rent £8,667
Spezia Road, London, NW10

Spezia Road is lined with well-maintained heritage properties, showcasing portico entrances and smart brickwork. From the outside, this two-bedroom ground floor apartment sings in harmony with the rest of the street; on the inside however, its period footprint has been transformed with inspiring modern design.

The entrance hallway has a modish feel with dark walls and tiled floors, leading down a step into the home’s spacious social heart. Smart herringbone wood floors span the entire open-plan space, which is divided between the kitchen, dining and reception areas. A log fireplace is contained in a marble tiled feature wall, making a cosy backdrop to the eating area. The kitchen is streamlined with integrated appliances and handleless cabinets, brightly illuminated through a series of vaulted skylights above.

A stylish L-shaped sofa and yellow armchairs are arranged for socialising, with a creative feel drawn by the artwork and open shelving surrounding the living area. A vast picture window slides open onto the garden beyond. It’s a well-manicured al fresco setting, complete with mature greenery, dining furniture and a barbecue. Things take a peaceful turn in the rear studio: with whitewashed shiplap walls, timber surfaces and a wood burner, this is a calming spot for contemplative work.

The home’s two bedrooms are pared-back in design and meditative in atmosphere. The principal bedroom is softly lit through a bay window, while neat ceiling cornicing and an original fireplace nod to Spezia Road’s historic pedigree. The guest bedroom shares the same neutral tonal palette, plus there’s a glass door which leads onto a private patio. Serving these spaces is the contemporary bathroom, featuring a large bathtub and shower wrapped in glossy metro tiling.
