Clean slate: An industrial setting transformed
Concrete floors, colossal volume and the curator’s instinct of owner Mollie Dent-Brocklehurst – Broughton Road is proof that even a laundry can reinvent itself.
Past a brick-clad entrance, smooth concrete floors unify an impressive social setting. A partition wall establishes two distinct zones – one is centred around a grand ten-seat table, the other set up for kicking back on the plush cream sofas. When conversation wanes, inspiration comes in the form of striking sculptures and eye-catching artwork.
Set apart, a minimalist kitchen caters for any eventuality. Keen chefs can make use of stainless-steel countertops and a large wooden island while onlookers can observe from the breakfast table. On the top level, an additional living room affords space to spread out.
Spread across the home’s first floor, four bedrooms are bright in design. A vaulted ceiling draws light through the spacious principal suite, all tactile textures and pared-back tones. Its en suite bathroom is similarly soothing, kitted out with a freestanding tub, rainfall shower and dual vanity. Wooden floors sweep through three further bedrooms, each similarly stylish and served by shower rooms.
From the home’s social hub, the reception room, tall panes of glass lead to the enclosed patio garden: a welcoming extension of the interior in warmer months. On the roof, bi-fold doors effortlessly draw back to reveal the private terrace – a decked area with an away-from-it-all feel.
Moments from the river and surrounded by green spaces, Broughton Road offers peace – and proximity to the city.
Take your pick of leafy green spaces to explore, from Parsons Green and Eel Brook Common to Imperial Park, or enjoy a game of tennis at the Hurlingham Club or Harbour Club. For creative inspiration, check out the showrooms at The Design Centre at Chelsea Harbour and refuel with pastries from French deli Chanteroy or brunch at Hally’s. Make The Sand’s End pub your local and be home in five.
