3 bed maisonette for sale

Loftus Road, London W12

~video tour below~ Victorian Proportions. Loft-Style Living. An Unexpected Private Terrace.

Victorian grandeur meets loft-style living in this exceptional upper maisonette, where beautifully preserved period features, architectural interest and soaring proportions combine to create one of Shepherd's Bush's most distinctive homes.

From the moment you climb the grand Victorian steps and enter, the scale of the interior is immediately apparent. A wide entrance hall, generous ceiling heights and exquisite period detailing create a striking first impression; while bold contemporary design brings warmth, character and individuality throughout.

Occupying the upper floors of an elegant mid-terrace Victorian building, the property offers generous accommodation arranged over multiple levels, including two light-filled reception rooms, a dramatic double-height principal bedroom, a versatile loft room and a secluded private terrace offering a rare sense of privacy.

The approach is every bit as appealing as the home itself. Loftus Road is one of Shepherd’s Bush’s widest and most attractive residential streets, lined with mature, well-manicured trees and handsome Victorian terraces.

The upper section is a no-through road, significantly reducing passing traffic and enhancing the sense of calm and privacy. Despite its excellent connectivity, the location retains a peaceful, residential atmosphere that feels a world away from the bustle of the surrounding area.

Entrance: Ascend the grand Victorian steps and the front door opens into a wide, period entrance hall - complete with cornicing, dado rails and generous ceiling heights that create a bold and expansive first impression. A beautiful arched detail frames the staircase, setting the tone for what follows.

Ground Floor: There are two versatile reception rooms on the ground floor, separated by original Victorian double doors that can be left open to create a wonderfully open-plan feel or closed during the winter months for a more intimate and cosy atmosphere.

Both reception rooms retain their original fireplaces with marble surrounds, while the front reception features the bay window visible from the street. The original ceiling roses provide a lovely finishing touch.

The kitchen sits to the rear of the ground floor, fitted with granite worktops, modern units and integrated appliances including a built-in oven and hob, microwave, washing machine and dishwasher. A glass door leads out to a beautifully arranged private patio terrace, which is not overlooked. Raised timber planters are filled with lavender, heathers and seasonal planting, while terracotta pots gather under a mature magnolia tree. Cool and shady in the mornings, and sun-filled in the afternoons, the terrace offers plenty of space for a table, chairs and a parasol, making it a wonderful spot for morning coffee, alfresco dining or an evening cocktail.

One of the terrace’s greatest surprises is its rare privacy. With no neighbouring houses directly behind, it enjoys an open outlook that feels remarkably secluded for such a central Shepherd’s Bush location. The door can remain open all summer long.

First Floor: Up the wide staircase to the half landing, there is a large well-appointed bathroom featuring a walk-in shower with metro-style tiles and a quirky period stove.

Continuing to the first floor you will find the principal bedroom - an extraordinary space defined by its double-height vaulted ceiling, original fireplace, double sash windows and deep pink feature wall. It is a room with real presence and personality, combining Victorian character with a bold, contemporary design aesthetic.

There is also a second double bedroom on this floor with a walk-in robe accessed via four wooden steps, and a large sash window overlooking the neighbouring gardens to the rear of the property.

Second Floor: Occupying the top floor, the loft room is currently arranged as a luxurious dressing room and home office, illuminated by skylights and benefiting from excellent storage. Generous in size and highly versatile, it could equally serve as a third bedroom or a dedicated work-from-home space, offering welcome separation from the main living areas.

A balcony-style opening overlooks the principal bedroom below, adding a striking sense of volume and architectural drama. For buyers seeking a more conventional layout, there is potential to enclose the space, if desired.

The principal bedroom and loft room share an ensuite bathroom, complete with a bathtub and shower fittings.

Local Amenities: For commuters, Shepherd’s Bush and Wood Lane stations (Central and Hammersmith & City lines) are both within easy walking distance, offering rapid access to Bond Street in under 15 minutes and Canary Wharf in around half an hour. Paddington, Euston and King’s Cross St Pancras are easily accessible via the Hammersmith & City line. Westfield London and the redeveloped BBC Television Centre are also less than a ten-minute walk away.

Heading west, Heathrow Airport is approximately 30 minutes by car in favourable traffic conditions. With convenient access to the M3, M4 and A40/M40 corridor, as well as the South Circular within approximately a 10-minute drive, the property also offers excellent road connections across London, and to the West Country and the Midlands.

Ample resident permit street parking further adds to the everyday convenience of the location.

For day-to-day life, Uxbridge Road is just five minutes away on foot, offering an excellent selection of independent cafés, restaurants, local shops, intimate music venues, a theatre and library; while Westfield provides major retailers, cinemas and a wide range of leisure amenities close by.

Families will appreciate St Stephen’s CofE Primary School, rated Outstanding by Ofsted, while Hammersmith Park sits just at the top of the road, offering green open space, a children’s play area, tennis and basketball courts, 5-a-side football, outdoor gym equipment and a pleasant pedestrian route through to White City. The Japanese Garden of Peace, within Hammersmith Park offers a hidden pocket of tranquillity, with curved stone bridges crossing still ponds, bamboo groves framing winding paths, and traditional lanterns set among mature trees.

Home to Queens Park Rangers F.C., Loftus Road Stadium is a well-established local landmark that contributes to the area's strong sense of community. Matchdays bring a sense of occasion and atmosphere for qpr supporters, while for the vast majority of the year the street is remarkably peaceful, with fixtures scheduled throughout the season (23 home games) and no football during the summer months, allowing the terrace to be enjoyed in complete tranquillity. The absence of neighbouring houses to the rear also creates an unusual sense of openness and privacy - a benefit that is increasingly rare in London.

This is a home with genuine Victorian elegance, unusually generous proportions, dramatic architectural volume and a location that consistently over-delivers. For the right buyer, the stadium provides a sense of local character and occasional atmosphere, while avoiding the continual activity associated with high-density apartment living, and sits comfortably alongside the many other qualities this remarkable home has to offer.
