Wheatstone Gardens, London, W10

A short wander from Golborne Road’s energy, this contemporary development feels quietly set back from it all. Inside, Pandora Taylor’s design brings a sense of play to a pared-back backdrop – colour and texture suited to the apartment’s bright, open feel.

Take the lift to the fifth floor, where the plan opens into a sociable living space. Light draws you through – from a calm, considered entrance into a reception room designed for easy flow. The kitchen sits to one side, streamlined and functional, with handleless cabinetry keeping the look crisp. Full-height glazing frames the space, with doors opening on either side to private balconies: easy extensions of the room that overlook the communal gardens below.

The bedroom shifts the mood. Peach-toned walls and a softly patterned headboard create something more cocooning, while direct balcony access brings in light. Built-in wardrobes keep the footprint clean and uncluttered. A bathroom in marble-effect tiling completes the home, finished with a bathtub and integrated rainfall shower.

Practical details are equally considered, including an air ventilation system and underground parking with EV charging (available by separate negotiation).

*The council tax for the property is currently unbanded
