A sought-after street lined with pristine red-brick townhouses sets the scene for this elegant semi-detached family home, found within the Oxford Gardens conservation area. Modern design pairs with a vast heritage footprint and period features to streamline the interiors for family life.
Beyond an intricate mosaic path, sympathetic styling brings original features to the fore. Lofty proportions, intricate cornicing and a large bay window draw an elegant air to the double reception room – a sprawling space divided in two. Traditional fireplaces sit to each side, while green glass doors to the rear offer seamless access to the south-facing garden. Outdoors, a patio provides a scenic setting for dining alfresco while the lawn beyond sits bordered by greenery.
Natural light inundates the kitchen and dining room through four sets of glass doors, bringing an inside-out feel. A space that makes a statement, vibrant tiling sweeps past navy cabinetry and a stainless steel double oven, through to a light-flooded spot ideal for breakfast. A second entrance can also be found on this floor, with an accompanying boot room with plenty of storage. Across the lower ground level, a second kitchen and large industrial utility room are convenient additions.
Upstairs, the entire first floor is encompassed by an indulgent principal bedroom suite. A neutral palette, period features and herringbone floors combine to produce a calm and considered atmosphere. Double doors draw back to a standout en suite bathroom – complete with a freestanding bathtub and private terrace. Elsewhere, two dedicated dressing rooms make mornings effortless. Three further bedrooms on the floor above share two family bathrooms, while a versatile studio at the top of the home features an en suite shower room.
Crowning the property, a decked roof-terrace is suited for London’s sunny days, with striking views across the North Kensington skyline.
Within walking distance of both Golborne Road and Portobello Road, laid-back North Kensington is a treasure trove of independent businesses. Shop for supplies at Golborne Deli & Wine Store, pick up pastries to go from Lisboa or Layla Bakery, or book dinner at Straker’s. Spend weekends browsing the neighbourhood’s renowned antique and vintage stalls. For designer shopping, The Village at Westfield is close by – stop for a drink at the White City branch of Soho House.
