Why you’ll like it:
For somewhere so central, West Hill Conservation Area is uniquely peaceful as its streets sit tucked away from the main hubbub of Seven Dials and the City Centre. This apartment is doubly quiet as it sits elevated on the first floor of a grand Victorian townhouse which has been renovated to a very high standard throughout. It is clear the current owner has a refined eye for contemporary interiors and a respect for period property as the original character of the space has been retained.

Once inside, the scale of the apartment becomes apparent as the ceilings soar throughout and natural light pours through tall sash bay windows in the open plan living room and kitchen spanning the depth of the building from east to west. There are clearly defined zones for relaxation, dining and cooking within the stylish Shaker kitchen in navy running along one wall, to include fully integrated appliances and stone worktops. Engineered oak flooring is paired with soft-white walls, running through the entire space for a clean and modern aesthetic to suit all styles of furnishing.

A short corridor links through to the northerly wing of the apartment where both double bedrooms are peacefully tucked away from the main living area. Both rooms feel exceptionally spacious with tall white walls and high ceilings adding to the feeling of space. To the front, the bay sash window looks out over the peaceful street, period architecture and a mature tree, while the room to the rear has far reaching views across the roofline to the east. Both rooms have soft grey carpet underfoot, and while the principal room has access to a chic and stylish en suite shower room, bedroom two has easy access to the main bathroom which is also lined in marbled tiles, but with a shower over a contemporary bath suite.
