French and Midcentury Influences in a Charming London Studio Apartment
When I first saw this home, I thought it might be a tiny house somewhere in the countryside. But this studio apartment with a loft bed is located in a former baker’s shop and bakery close to Seven Sisters station in London.
The current owner has completely transformed the small space of 38 square meters into a light and airy little home with a country house-style interior, a loft bed, and a luxurious bathroom with a clawfoot bath and marble tiles.
A communal garden, courtyard, and steel stairs give access to the small home in London. With windows on three sides, a pitched roof, and a light color palette, this home feels more spacious than its actual floor plan.
The owner has a love for French antiques, and that’s visible in the decor of this studio apartment. It doesn’t look English, instead you almost feel like you’re in the French countryside.
On one side of the room lies the sitting area with windows on two sides looking over the green courtyard. A Charnwood wood burner sits in the corner, creating a warm ambiance in the cold and darker months.
The ladder that gives access to the sleeping loft is hanging from the ceiling so it’s not in the way when it’s not in use.
The studio has a large kitchen for the small space. The white cabinets are topped with Carrera marble worktops, and open shelves display glassware and crockery.
The round table with bistro chairs add a nice French touch to the little home.
The bathroom is designed with an Albion Bath Co. rolltop bath and marble tiles.
The communal outdoor space wraps around three sides of the building. When in bloom, this must feel like a charming hidden corner in London.
The studio apartment is listed for £325,000 at Inigo.
