St. Barnabas Street, London, SW1W 8QE

Why We Love St Barnabas Street

A beautifully modernised Georgian cottage in Belgravia, offering the perfect opportunity for downsizing without compromising on quality. St Barnabas could also make a luxurious pied-à-terre or a delightful new marital home.

Situated on the South side of a charming unspoilt street lined with early 19th century terraced cottages, St Barnabas’ period façade hides a smartly renovated home with a successful modern layout and a seamless tardis-like extension within.

The house is set back from the road behind traditional cast-iron railings. The front door with fanlight window opens into a hallway with sight right through the house to the garden. To the right of the front door sits a study/book room fitted with double doors and inbuilt bookshelves, which works as a flexible space and could act as an additional bedroom when needed. Double glazed doors lead through from the hallway to the modern kitchen/dining room which includes a fitted kitchen along one wall with cupboard storage, integral appliances, and space for a dining table. Cleverly incorporated sleek glass rooflights bring additional natural light into the space. 

The sitting room overlooks the South-West facing garden and is accessed via a large pocket door from the kitchen which can be tucked away to create an open plan flow. The sitting room has a cosy gas fire and is bathed in light from a wrap-around glass rooflight and large French doors onto the garden.

A generous modern family bathroom with bath and separate shower as well as a laundry cupboard is located next to the stairs. The first floor is made up of two bright double bedrooms, both with inbuilt cupboards. The principal bedroom overlooks the garden and has an adjoining shower room. The second bedroom has views across the cottages on the other side of the street to Grade I listed St Barnabas’ Church.

The kitchen sitting room and bathrooms all benefit from underfloor heating. Air conditioning units are fitted in the sitting room and master bedroom. 

Garden 

The lovely walled rear garden faces South-West catching the best of the sun. It includes a paved dining terrace perfect for entertaining in warmer months, and raised flowerbeds.
