Entry is to the first floor via a generously proportioned mezzanine hallway with built-in cabinetry and a staircase that leads to the second floor of the apartment. A large open-plan reception room/kitchen lies at the front of the plan and has impressive views over Fernhead Road; solid oak parquet flooring runs underfoot. A bespoke deVol kitchen with a bank of shaker-style cupboards painted in custom Little Greene is topped with honed Statuarietto marble and finished with solid brass fittings. These neatly house a pantry, a fridge-freezer and Miele appliances. Solid brass light fixtures from Holloways of Ludlow, cast-iron radiators and wooden shutters have been used throughout.

An upper-floor landing leads to a generously sized second bedroom with waist-height wooden panelling, a cast-iron radiator and verdant views over quiet residential gardens. Next to this room lies the large main bathroom, clad in floor-to-ceiling glazed white Mandarin Stone tiles and encaustic floor tiles underfoot. A large rainfall walk-in shower, light fixtures and a heated towel rail are all solid brass by Studio Ore.

At the rear of the plan, a peaceful main bedroom is an expansive space with a bank of bespoke wardrobes and sisal carpeting (similarly to the second bedroom) runs underfoot; a large sash window casts light over the room.

The home is topped by a spacious outdoor terrace, offering panoramic views of Queen’s Park. An ardent oasis of white David Austin ‘Claire Austin’ climbing roses intermixed with Ceanothus Italian Skies foliage have been planted and offer beautiful blue, white and purple blossoms seasonally. Fixed potted planting includes kitchen rosemary, which scents the whole terrace on warm summer evenings, long after the sun has set. Bound by railings, planters and contemporary pink tiling on one wall, the area comes with an exterior tap; there is plenty of space for a table and chairs.

Fernhead Road is ideally located close to an array of public transport and restaurants, and independent shops. The nearby Lonsdale Road is a quiet and largely car-free street lined with cafes and restaurants and plenty of outdoor eateries. Highlights include bakery and baking school Bread Ahead, Australian restaurant and coffee roasters Milk Beach and ultra-cool brewery and bar Wolfpack. Salusbury Road has an abundance of shops, supermarkets and cafes, including butcher Provenance ‘village’ bucther, Planet Organic and both The Salusbury Wine Store and The Salusbury Deli.

The apartment is within reaching distance of Queen’s Park, offering both Overground and Bakerloo line services. Westbourne Park is also near (Circle and Hammersmith & City lines). Both the A40 and M4 are within close proximity, offering direct links to the North and Heathrow airport.
