Brondesbury Road, London NW6

Guide price £750,000 - £775,000

Brondesbury Road runs through what was once the parkland of Brondesbury Park estate; a varying demesne of up to 54 acres, its focal grounds transformed in the eighteenth century by the great landscape designer Humphry Repton. By the Edwardian period, the estate had given way to the wide, well-mannered residential streets that define this part of NW6 today, including Brondesbury Road with its pebbledash render and white archway entrance.

This two-bedroom ground-floor apartment, spanning 720 sq ft, has been renovated with exceptional care and an eye for detail. With sweeping blond wood floors throughout, we begin with the open-plan reception room and kitchen. Currently furnished with elegant sofas, console tables and an original marble-hearth fireplace with its decorative Edwardian tiles intact, it is a beautifully bright and considered space. A simple step down leads into the kitchen, where cream cabinetry and worktops with silver appliances are lit by a skylight overhead. Natural wood inserts in the cabinetry grooves echo the floors underfoot; bar stools, placed at the counter, extend the kitchen naturally for informal dining. The renovation details here repay attention. A white vertical radiator saves space without sacrificing elegance; fitted display cabinets offer tidy, unobtrusive storage. These are the marks of a project approached with genuine thought.

Garden doors from the reception open onto a large private garden of considerable charm: A patio for outdoor dining, mature trees and established shrubs, planted beds, a verdant lawn, and a shed for garden and miscellaneous storage. It is private, green and entirely unhurried.

Both bedrooms are spacious doubles, bright and well-proportioned. A contemporary family bathroom suite completes the apartment.

Queen's Park station, with its Bakerloo line and London Overground connections, lies close by. Brondesbury Park Overground station is within easy reach, providing swift connections to Highbury & Islington and Clapham Junction. Salusbury Road, Lonsdale Road and the wider offer of the Queen's Park neighbourhood are all within easy walking distance.
