Bay and sash windows fill this 1920s-built home with light

This immaculate two-bedroom apartment lies on the first floor of Perryn House, a smart mansion block dating from the early 1900s. Inside, a bright sitting room is bathed in natural light care of a large bay window, while a well-appointed kitchen opens onto a private balcony beyond. Residents also have access to verdant communal gardens filled with mature trees and shrubbery.

Setting the Scene

Thought to have been built in 1927, Perryn House is named after John Perryn, a 17th-century goldsmith who lived in East Acton. Upon his death, he left his sizeable estate to The Goldsmiths’ Company; many of the streets and buildings in the area are named after Perryn, or have a connection to The Goldsmiths.

Perryn House is a smart mansion block arranged around communal gardens. The building retains many of its original features, including a smart red brick façade and a series of bay and sash windows.

The Grand Tour

A tall wrought-iron gate provides access to Perryn House and its communal gardens. The apartment lies on the first floor; inside, a bright entrance hall opens onto a serene sitting room, its bay window looking out across the gardens. An original picture rail traces soaring ceilings, while a contemporary mantlepiece is positioned where a fireplace would once have stood.

In the kitchen, neat white cabinetry provides ample storage space. There is a Bosch oven and microwave and a built-in breakfast table. A glass-panelled door opens onto a peaceful balcony.

The principal bedroom is illuminated by two sash windows with treetop views. An additional bedroom is currently used as a study. The plan is completed by a shower room and a separate WC.

The Great Outdoors

A private balcony is accessed from the kitchen. Residents also have access to beautifully landscaped gardens, filled with a variety of mature trees and shrubbery.

The apartment has a private garage as well as shared parking.

The Duke of Sussex and the Swan pub are loved by locals. Around a half-hour walk eastwards is the lively Shepherd's Bush Market, along with grassroots music venue Bush Hall and the renowned Bush Theatre.
