Property description
A distinguished Grade II listed corner house overlooking De Beauvoir Square.
Description
Occupying a prominent position on one of De Beauvoir's most sought-after garden squares, this elegant family home enjoys a rare corner plot and an outstanding quality of natural light throughout. With windows to multiple elevations, the house is flooded with daylight throughout the day, a quality seldom found in period houses of this type. Arranged over four floors, the property combines elegant mid-19th century architecture with carefully considered contemporary design, creating a home of considerable character and individuality.
The raised ground floor provides an elegant reception room overlooking the front garden and the square beyond. The room benefits from impressive ceiling heights, decorative cornicing, a striking fireplace and reclaimed timber flooring, creating a wonderfully warm and refined living environment. To the rear is a separate study, providing a peaceful and well-proportioned workspace away from the principal reception areas.
The lower ground floor forms the heart of the home, centred around a thoughtfully designed kitchen and dining room. A substantial glazed rooflight draws natural light deep into the space, accentuating the generous ceiling height and creating a bright and inviting setting for both everyday living and entertaining. Bespoke cabinetry and carefully selected natural materials contribute to the understated quality of the room, while doors open directly onto the side patio and rear garden, establishing a seamless connection between the interior and exterior.
Also on this floor is a further reception room, arranged as an intimate family room and centred around a contemporary feature gas fireplace, providing an inviting setting throughout the year. A separate shower room and useful storage complete the accommodation.
The outdoor space is a particularly notable feature of the property. The substantial front garden creates an impressive approach to the house and enhances the sense of privacy from the square. To the side, a sheltered patio provides an ideal setting for outdoor dining and links seamlessly to the rear garden. Extending to approximately 36 ft in length, the rear garden offers a rare degree of seclusion and provides a tranquil setting for relaxation and entertaining.
The bedroom accommodation is arranged across the upper floors. The first floor is dedicated to a generously proportioned principal bedroom with built-in storage. This floor is served by a beautifully appointed family bathroom featuring a freestanding bath and a generous walk-in shower, together with the convenience of a separate WC. Two further double bedrooms occupy the second floor, both benefitting from fitted storage and providing well-balanced accommodation ideally suited to family living.
Particular attention has been paid to the interior design throughout, resulting in a home that feels both distinctive and highly functional. Bespoke craftsmanship, carefully curated finishes and sensitive contemporary detailing sit comfortably alongside the building's original features, creating a series of beautifully composed living spaces that balance period character with modern living. Opportunities to rent a house of this quality and scale on De Beauvoir Square are exceptionally rare.
