4 rooms apartment of 272m² in London

Beyond the stucco façade and porticoed porch of a Victorian townhouse, this duplex apartment reveals itself across the upper levels with quiet confidence. Inside, marble floors tiles lead the way into a reception room that establishes the home’s rhythm. Light filters through twin sash windows, illuminating cornicing, a ceiling rose and original marble fireplace. Contemporary finishes – an acrylic coffee table, a bespoke corner sofa and print by Joan Miró – sit effortlessly alongside the period detailing. The adjoining dining room continues the sophisticated narrative. At its centre, a dark-wood oval table that seats eight, framed by plush grey chairs and a sculptural chandelier that lends a sense of occasion. A Victorian fireplace with a carved mantel and gilded mirror adds a note of formality, complemented by a modern bar trolley. Down a set of stairs, the kitchen offers a bright and functional backdrop to everyday life. White shaker cabinetry is paired with Quartz worktops and a stainless-steel under-mount sink, creating a clean, cohesive look. A Range cooker anchors the space, while other high-quality appliances are subtly integrated, leaving the kitchen with a seamless feel. A breakfast bar defines the room’s flow, leading to a built-in booth where casual entertaining or family dinners can unfold. Upstairs, the sleeping quarters have a sanctuary-like feel. The principal suite, arranged across two tiers, feels deliberately tucked away. The sleeping area centres around an upholstered bed backdropped by a wall of antique mirrors. Steps lead down to a generous dressing room, then onwards to a spa-like bathroom where marble flooring meets herringbone tiles brushed-gold accents and underfloor heating. Three additional bedroom suites complete this floor, each bathed in natural light. Playful wallpapers and neutral furnishings set an inviting tone, while well-appointed en suite bathrooms balance style with everyday practicality.
