Property description
In one of West London’s most welcoming neighbourhoods, this architect-designed, two-bedroom home is all clean lines, warm materials and compelling angular volumes.
Occupying a curved corner plot in the heart of Oliphant Street, this three-bedroom home was recently shortlisted by the British Institute of Interior Design. An outstanding architectural renovation has transformed the house into a light-flooded sanctum, defined by angular intrigue and a refined material palette throughout – its unique wedge-shaped footprint affording a generous sense of space.
Beyond the front door, pale parquet flooring draws you into a sweeping open-plan reception room. Large windows diffuse soft natural light across whitewashed walls, creating a calm backdrop for carefully considered interiors: minimalist L-shaped seating, contemporary artwork and coloured, tactile textiles. During the colder months, a contemporary cubic fireplace provides a cosy anchor for the space.
Through a wide archway, flooring transitions to cool stone beneath a series of overhead skylights. Here, the dining area sits alongside a wall-to-wall picture window that opens fully to blur the boundary between indoors and out. A richly materialised kitchen is concealed behind a striking red patterned curtain, where sleek timber cabinetry and integrated appliances combine form with function.
Italian travertine runs throughout the rear of the ground floor and continues onto the patio beyond, creating a seamless connection with the garden. Designed for entertaining, the private landscaped space features a fully equipped-outdoor kitchen set against an exposed brick wall. Timber fencing and thoughtfully layered planting ensure privacy and tranquillity.
An architectural cantilevered staircase sweeps upwards, carrying the home’s considered design between floors. The principal bedroom is pared-back and restful, finished in the same soft palette. Sunlight pours through a large sash window, illuminating bespoke cedar-lined wardrobes. Across the hallway, a sliding pocket door reveals the spa-like bathroom, where warm stone surfaces, a sculptural basin and a bathtub sit beneath a skylight.
Also on the first floor, a dedicated study offers bespoke storage and French doors that open onto a private terrace. Flexible in its use, the space could easily serve as an additional bedroom. The upper-floor suite provides a further peaceful retreat, with vaulted ceilings, Velux windows and an adjoining bathroom.
Location
There’s a strong sense of community to this pocket of west London, nestled between Kensal Rise, Queen’s Park and North Kensington. Popular with creatives and city professionals alike, the neighbourhood is characterised by tree-lined residential streets and handsome period architecture. Begin the day with a coffee from Cable Co. before strolling through the greenery of Queen’s Park, where the much-loved weekend farmers’ market is a local staple. Nearby Chamberlayne Road — once dubbed London’s ‘hippest street’ by Vogue — is lined with independent restaurants, cafés and boutiques. A short walk away, Golborne Road offers a distinctly local feel, known for its Portuguese bakeries, vintage stores and long-standing neighbourhood businesses.
