Property description
Houses cannot win the Turner or Booker Prizes, but if they could, this one-of-a-kind, almost secret property surely would. In terms of the Turner Prize, this villa is a piece of modern art that, unlike works at moma or Tate Modern, is enjoyed not by the eyes for moments but as a piece of living art, with its meticulous attention to design and opulent but not ostentatious proportions, it is experienced by all five of your senses for the years you and your family live there.
In terms of the Booker Prize, it would win because it tells a story of who we are today as a culture and not who we were in Victorian times, like so many of the surrounding homes at this price point. It has large open and lateral (over 30m across on the ground floor), light-filled spaces (5.5m ceilings in the reception), with best-in-class heat and noise insulation, Air Conditioning, lift, catering kitchen, dumb waiter, sauna, gym, steam and treatment room, off street parking for numerous cars and much more. It also is a place where you make stories and memories with your family and friends. It is a home where your friends will be willing to travel to from across London or further to come to Watch the Cup Final or Playoffs in the cinema with you or where your children and their friends will look forward to coming to go swimming after school rather than going to glue themselves to a phone screen alone. It is a place to celebrate 40th, 50th and 60th birthday parties while hosting your friends from across the world.
The name Belsize comes from the old French “Bel Assis, ” meaning beautifully situated and nowhere is more beautifully situated than this home. A one-minute walk to Belsize Village, with its alfresco eating, cafe culture, greengrocer, fish mongers, wine bar and organic shop. Hampstead Heath is 12 minute walk away, and Hampstead Village is a similar distance. Excellent connections to Mayfair, Kings Cross and Canary Wharf allow those working in Hedge Funds, Private Equity, Tech or Finance easy access to the office. The offering of schools is the finest in London, with The Hall, Trevor Roberts, St Christopher’s, Devonshire House, Sarum Hall, asl and ucs all close by.
Early viewing is highly recommended. Strictly by appointment with KIRE (Keeping it Real Estate)
EPC Rating: B
