A handsome period framework accented with modern details, this two-bedroom apartment is a springboard to, and sanctuary from, the vibrant capital.
Behind a bold façade on Chilworth Street sits an opulent home. Sprawled over the first floor, this lateral two-bedroom apartment showcases considered touches and contemporary comfort throughout its expansive plan. Bearing the hallmarks of its period grandeur, three-metre-high ceilings create an uplifting feel, with ornate ceiling roses and intricate cornicing. Framed by wooden shutters, a bank of full-height sash windows floods the open-plan reception room with morning sun. Wood chevron floors span the entire room, bookended by two Victorian fireplaces. Prepare meals in the minimalist kitchen; entertaining is easy in a living area optimised for conversation.
Steps lead down to a sanctum of a principal bedroom, affording a sense of privacy to the space. A skylight illuminates the entrance to this tranquil hideaway which features fitted wardrobes and an en suite bathroom. At the opposite end of the plan, a guest bedroom suite is all hushed tones. Bottle-green wall lamps recall the lighting in the principal bedroom while a corner fireplace is a classic touch. This space also features fitted storage and a modern en suite.
Chilworth Street is a leafy residential road in Bayswater – a stepping stone to the West End, London’s bustling theatreland.
