This beautifully conceived one-bedroom apartment unfolds over the top two floors of a cream stucco-fronted Victorian terrace in Pimlico. The apartment has been sensitively renovated to create a contemporary and light-filled space unified by a calming, raw plaster finish throughout. There are some treasured local restaurants on its doorstep, while the energetic bustle of central London is within easy reach.



The Tour



The apartment is well-positioned in the middle of tree-lined Denbigh Street and is entered via a communal front door. The private door is reached via a staircase on the third floor.



An open-plan living space occupies the top floor. A single Prussian blue steel stud sits boldly against raw pink plaster walls. Next to a generous sash window is a dining area; beyond is the kitchen, which leads out through bifolding doors onto a balcony with mesmerising views of the London skyline.



The kitchen has been masterfully handcrafted: dark teal cupboards are juxtaposed with oak cabinetry and a stainless-steel worktop. Powder-coated anthracite grey balusters and spindles above the stairwell in the main living space provide focal interest and allow light to flood the stairs from a skylight above.



An oak staircase leads down to the third floor, where an entrance hall connects the study bedroom and en suit bathroom. The generous bedroom has far-reaching views out across central London through its double-height sash window. Wall lights are thoughtfully positioned for bedtime reading, while open, fitted wardrobes provide hanging space; there is also further storage in a fitted cupboard opposite the bed for larger items such as suitcases. The en suite bathroom is finished in grey terrazzo with a walk-in shower with fixtures by Lusso Stone and a mushroom wall sconce beside the mirror. The generous study sits at the rear of the plan with light entering via a large sash window.



Outdoor Space



The apartment has a sheltered outdoor balcony with green tiles and a custom mural. Luscious plants, including bamboo, jasmine and fatsia japonica, surround the space. Patio heating and power allow for year-round enjoyment. Famous landmarks can be spotted, including the Houses of Parliament, the Shard and the neo-Byzantine Westminster Cathedral.



The Area



Denbigh Street is wonderfully situated in the heart of Pimlico. There are several outstanding local restaurants, cafés and shops, including the Michelin-awarded A.Wong, the no-frills Regency Café, Gails, and Grumbles.



Green spaces are abundant, with the leafy St George’s Square an eight-minute stroll and St James’ Park is about 20 minutes on foot. The Thames Path and Tate Britain are a 15-minute walk away.



Grade II*-listed Battersea Power Station for shopping and entertainment is a 20-minute walk away. Sloane Square, home of the Saatchi Gallery, and Vauxhall are both also 20 minutes away on foot. The latter is home to Damien Hirst’s Newport Street Gallery, designed by Caruso St John Architects, and the Cabinet Gallery, designed by Trevor Horne. Nearby Brunswick House, inhabiting a striking 18th-century building, contains an excellent restaurant and architectural salvage shop.



Although much of London is within walking or cycling distance, there are outstanding transport links nearby. The Pimlico Underground is a seven-minute walk away, while Victoria station is nine minutes in the other direction.
