A Green Living Room in a London Maisonette

In the heart of the De Beauvoir neighborhood in London stands this stunning maisonette home with a green living room and two outdoor spaces. The apartment is located on the lower ground and ground floors of a beautiful Victorian terrace house, which was recently renovated, blending refined Victorian features with contemporary elements.

The maisonette is decorated in a muted palette of greens, gray, and beige, making the original features of the historic home really stand out. Unique for a maisonette home are the two outdoor spaces; a balcony attached to the living room and a city garden on the lower ground floor.

The double reception room is divided into a sitting room at the back of the house and a kitchen at the front. The living spaces feature warm Italian oak floorboards.

The living room is painted in a soothing green shade and centered around a beautiful ornate fireplace painted in the same color. The stucco on the ceiling and the wooden French doors are kept white to make them really stand out.

On either sie of the fireplace, built-in shelves and desks have been fitted.

Folding screen doors can turn the two living space into private rooms.

The front of the apartment is home to a modern kitchen with muted blue walls and gray cabinets. The large sash window lets in lots of light so you use darker shades without making it too gloomy.

The wide hallway, painted in a light green shade, is fitted with built-in wardrobes of the same color.

On the lower ground floor, you can find three bedrooms. The master bedroom features floor-to-ceiling wardrobes with linen doors and French doors that open to the garden.

The second bedroom is painted in a calm beige shade and now functions as a home office.

The maisonette has a Mediterranean-style bathroom with terracotta hexagon floor tiles and a free-standing Lusso Stone bath.

The sunken garden, overhung with ferns and evergreen plants, is paved with marbled stone, which gives a slight pink hue.

The maisonette is listed for £1,600,000 at The Modern House.
