1 room flat of 53m² in London

Set back from the street beyond a private gate, this turn-key home makes a welcome first impression. A south-west facing courtyard greets you first – decked underfoot and perfectly positioned for late-afternoon sun. Inside, the tone shifts to sleek and considered. Engineered oak flooring runs throughout, unifying a kitchen and reception space that feels both bright and intimate. Dark marble countertops crown veneered wood cabinetry to either side, while a bronze sink and tap highlight the attention to detail. High-spec appliances by Smeg and Samsung are seamlessly integrated; storage is discreet and intelligently planned. To the rear, a cosy lounge opens through glazed doors onto the shared lawn – a wide sweep of green that extends the sense of space. Adjacent, the dining area is bright and well arranged, with tall windows drawing in natural light and concealed cabinetry that keeps the aesthetic streamlined. Upstairs, the principal suite continues the restrained palette. Built-in storage sits against the walls, while a Juliet balcony invites in garden views and daylight. The en suite is refined and tactile – plaster-effect tiling, a rainfall shower and a bespoke marble basin. A bespoke wall bed can be raised when not in use – a clever design detail that offers welcome versatility.
