Expect space and style in abundance at Sunderland Terrace, with a footprint attuned to family life. Step through the porticoed entrance to a formal reception room, awash with light from the south-facing sash window. Set up as a dedicated dining space, it harmonises old and new – think heritage cornicing and a traditional fireplace that provide a sophisticated backdrop for entertaining. A Sonos system fitted throughout the house sees to the soundtrack.
Double doors connect with the adjacent kitchen – a light-filled space with sleek countertops and a central island-cum-breakfast bar. Follow the hallway round to a terrace, with overhead heaters for when the nights draw in. Upstairs, the first-floor reception room is a showstopper of a space, with high ceilings and double French doors out to a sun-trap balcony.
Bedrooms are spread over the top three floors and the lower ground floor, which leads out to a private garden. The bright principal suite sets a calming tone, with floor-to-ceiling wardrobes on one side and large sash windows on the other. Head through to the striking en-suite bathroom, finished with a monochrome dual vanity and a free-standing bath.
At the top of the house, a fully-equipped kitchen and south-facing roof terrace makes an ideal annex space, perfect for visiting guests, older children and nannies.
