De Vere Gardens, London W8

This fifth-floor lateral apartment has been comprehensively redesigned and refurbished to an exceptional standard by mkdl. The layout has been carefully developed with family living in mind, with bespoke glazed double doors separating the principal living and entertaining rooms from the quieter bedroom accommodation, while maintaining a sense of light and flow throughout. The kitchen and dining room were designed as the functional and social heart of the home, providing a generous space for both everyday family living and entertaining.

Classical architectural detailing was reintroduced throughout apartment through handcrafted cornicing, coffered ceilings, panelled walls and deep skirting. These elements are complemented by luxury material finishes, including beautiful, engineered herringbone oak flooring, bespoke external timber doors leading to private front balconies. New sash windows and extended rooflights to allow additional light into the apartment. Quartzite and Marble worktops and finishes throughout.

The apartment boasts fully designed bespoke cabinetry with specialist finishes, including custom bookcases, wardrobes with fabric and leather panelling, bespoke veneer bathroom vanities.

A layered lighting scheme brings warmth and depth to the interior, combining architectural lighting with decorative fittings in bronze, alabaster and crystal. The Lutron-controlled lighting and shading are discreetly integrated to provide contemporary comfort without detracting from the apartment's architectural character.

The apartment benefits from a full underfloor heating system, with additional radiators located in the steps to the front balcony and the primary bedroom and study. Cooling and supplementary heating for the whole property is provided through air conditioning, and extraction system. The mechanical setup includes a hot water cylinder, booster set and water leak detection. The hot water is heated via a gas boiler.

Fire alarm system and intruder alarm systems are also installed to ensure the safety and security of the property, together with a dedicated door entry system.
