4 rooms apartment of 254m² in London

Set on a quiet street of brick frontages, this refined yet eclectic home makes a bold first impression. Heavy, charcoal-toned accents set the tone while a black door reveals a design-led retreat crafted by Coupdeville Architects. Reimagined with mirrored glass, reclaimed four-panel doors maximise light and reflect textural brickwork which flows from the entranceway to the upper levels. At the front of the house, the reception room exudes a sense of opulence. A bay window is generous with natural light, illuminating palatial proportions, intricate ceiling roses and a recessed fireplace. Down several steps is a head-turning space. The aesthetic of a New York loft has been carefully recreated in the eat-in kitchen. Exposed brick and white subway tiles pair with a monolithic concrete island and steel girders overhead. Metal electrical casing and an American-style fridge complete the look. The dining area is crowned with two generous skylights, pouring in daylight. Come the evening, low-hanging enamelled pendant lights wear an industrial look and provide an ambient glow. Dark hardwood flooring flows to the rear of the space, where expansive glazing imbues the room with an uplifting atmosphere and folds back to let the outside in. Beyond, a leafy southwest-facing decked garden provides ample space for relaxing or entertaining. Inside, distressed wooden stairs lead to the first floor, which is dominated by an expansive principal bedroom suite. Dual sash windows lend a bright and airy feel while the carpet adds softness and warmth. An expansive walk-in dressing area features bespoke joinery and leads to a large en suite bathroom with an antique glass feature wall, a walk-in shower and a freestanding rolltop bath. Served by two bathrooms, three further bedrooms pair original features with modern interventions. A rear-facing study sits on the second floor while the home also benefits from a lower-ground-floor utility room.
