The Indoors -

The property benefits from two bedroom spaces. The bright and peaceful principal bedroom is filled with natural light, offering a calm and sophisticated retreat. Its generous proportions are enhanced by bespoke oak-framed Japanese shoji sliding doors featuring delicate white washi paper panels, which softly diffuse light and create a serene, authentic Japanese-inspired ambiance. These elegant doors open to an adjoining flexible space, ideal for a home office, dressing area, or second bedroom, fostering an airy, open feel with excellent flow and distinctive character. This bright and beautifully proportioned open-plan kitchen/living space combines minimalist elegance with warm, characterful touches, creating a versatile and inviting hub for modern living. The sleek pale grey handleless kitchen features integrated appliances, including an oven and hob, complemented by under cabinet lighting and open shelving for a clean, contemporary feel. The premium Foresso kitchen worktop, a sustainable, handmade timber terrazzo adds a unique, eco-conscious texture and warmth while being highly durable and environmentally responsible. Recessed handles on the bespoke birch ply bifold doors feature the same striking Foresso material, paired with a smooth bespoke track system and solid oak frame for seamless functionality and refined detail.

Light floods in through large floor-to-ceiling windows and French doors, newly installed double-glazed wood windows that enhance energy efficiency, offering serene views over London rooftops and bathing the space in natural light throughout the day. The premium oak flooring flows seamlessly throughout, complemented by excellent insulation and soundproofing for a quiet, comfortable home. A newly installed, highly efficient electric hot water system significantly reduces energy costs, underscoring the property's thoughtful sustainability.

The contemporary bathroom exudes serene luxury and spa-like tranquillity, finished in a newly renovated terrazzo tile scheme that wraps the walls and floor in soft, timeless tones with subtle veining for elegant sophistication. A sleek walk-in shower features a seamless glass screen and overhead rain shower, creating an open, invigorating space. The minimalist white vessel sink sits atop a beautifully crafted solid oak vanity unit with two drawers, adding organic warmth and practical storage.

The Outdoors -

The property benefits from a charming Juliette balcony with serene views over Regent’s Canal, a peaceful waterway lined with colourful narrowboats, lush greenery, and tree-shaded towpaths. From here, enjoy the gentle pace of London life: passing boats, gliding swans, shimmering water reflections, and the calming sounds of the canal. It offers a tranquil urban escape, blending historic charm with easy access to vibrant spots like Little Venice, Camden, or King's Cross.
