Summerfield Avenue, Queen's Park, London, NW6

Through the ground floor entrance, parquet flooring guides past a partition wall to a reception room flooded in light. Seating arranged around a bay window distinguishes a laid-back lounging area, while an abstract wire light overhangs the open space adjacent. The room’s centrepiece, a suspended staircase concealed behind wooden panels is backdropped by an exposed brick wall. Framing floor-to-ceiling glass, a window nook overlooks a void space to the lower ground floor.

From here, steps lead down to the open-plan kitchen – a space crafted for the culinarily inclined. Grey-green cabinetry lines the immediate area, while an expansive skylight draws in light over a central island. Just beyond, panels of glazing create cohesion with the outdoors. Enclosing a light-filled dining area, glass slides back to connect a patio and small walled green space.

Upstairs, a pared-back palette flows through three bedrooms arranged across the first and second floor. A bay window diffuses light across muted lilac walls in the principal bedroom, its integrated wooden wardrobes offering seamless storage options. Balancing black-veined marble, warm wood accents complete the en suite bathroom with bathtub, walk-in rainfall shower and dual vanity. Two further bedroom suites feature natural light and soothing tones.

Across the lower ground floor, carefully crafted light channels by Nick Willson Architects bring light to an additional reception area, study and spacious bedroom. At the centre – a white pebbled lightwell is enclosed by glass.
