With its own front door, the maisonette is accessed on street level via a pathway of original terracotta flags. A flight of stairs ascends to the first floor, where the reception room occupies the front of the plan.

A wonderfully bright space, the room is filled with natural light from a large bay window with original glazing. An Edwardian fireplace with art nouveau scrolled foliage takes centre stage, while bespoke cabinetry flanks the chimney breast. The walls have been painted a cool ‘Skylight’ by Farrow and Ball that complements the stained oak flooring underfoot here and throughout the maisonette.

At the further end of the plan is the large kitchen/dining room. Timber cabinets here are painted in a vibrant ‘Brassica’ purple, and the space has been designed around a central island unit that has space for informal dining. Units are topped in a hardy Attica quartz, while the backsplash for the oven is clad with antique Delft tiles.  There is also direct access to the rear garden via an external staircase.

Between the reception room and kitchen lies a guest bedroom and bathroom. The shower room has been part clad in tongue-and-groove panelling, with a botanical print wallpaper by Farrow and Ball above. Fittings are by Astro and Matki, and the geometric floor tiles are from Parkside Tiles.

The second floor is home to two further bedrooms, the largest of which has walls washed in a calming ‘Dove Grey’. It also has built-in wardrobes and views over the quiet garden behind. A large family bathroom sits between the two bedrooms; recently renovated, the current owners have incorporated a glazed Juliet balcony and large skylight, both of which flood the space with natural light. Wallpaper is Morris & Co. by Ben Pentreath.

Accessed via a flight of painted steel stairs, the rear garden is a veritable sun trap and a private retreat. Laid with porcelain outdoor floor tiles, the space is perfect for dining during warmer months. Handy for bikes, prams and potting debris, there is also a secure service lane accessed from the rear of the garden.

There is access to a small storage room from the garden, which occupies the space beneath the stairwell.

The green space of Acton Park is a five-minute walk away and is home to a skatepark and outdoor gym. Nearby Churchfield Road offers a great variety of independent shops and cafes, including local favourite Fed and Watered, while Westfield shopping centre is close by for a wider range of shops and restaurants. The amenities of Ealing are also readily accessible.

Chiswick is within easy reach; its High Road and Turnham Green Terrace are lined with excellent parades of independent shops, restaurants and cafés, including Chief Coffee and High Road House (Soho House group), as well as Chiswick Cinema. The Duke of Sussex and the Swan pub are loved by locals. Around a half-hour walk eastwards is lively Shepherd’s Bush Market, along with grassroots music venue Bush Hall and renowned Bush Theatre. Television Centre, independent restaurants such as Kricket and Soho House members’ club, White City House, are all an easy distance away on foot.

There are plenty of excellent state-run schools in the area, including Ark Priory Primary School and Southfield Primary School. Some of the city’s best private options are also within easy reach, including Orchard House School and Latymer.

Acton Central station (Mildmay line) is a 10-minute walk away, while Turnham Green station (Piccadilly and District lines) is a 15-minute walk south. The area is also well-served by buses.
