A Muted Color Palette in a Charming Ground Floor Apartment
The ground floor of a handsome Victorian townhouse in the Dulwich area in London is home to this charming garden apartment showcasing a beautiful muted color palette created with Farrow & Ball tones.
The apartment has been carefully renovated and shows many original features like cast-iron tiled fireplaces and tripartite sash windows. The small apartment has an open-plan living room and kitchen, two bedrooms, and a private garden.
At the front of the plan lies a charming open-plan living room and kitchen with a stunning fireplace flanked by built-in bookcases.
A large shuttered bay window provides the living space with natural light. What I love in this room is the color palette. The walls are painted in two muted shades, and the ceiling is an even darker color.
The cast-iron fire is the star of the room. It is framed by ornate tiles and a beautiful mantel.
In a niche, just off the living area, lies the kitchen. In the living room, the owners added a rustic island with bar seating.
The tiny kitchen makes the most of its limited size. Mink and green cabinets are paired with an oak countertop. The green backsplash tiles are laid in a herringbone pattern.
On the opposite side stand more cabinets with pull-out worktops. On the floor lies a classic starry floor tile by Mandarin Stone.
The master bedroom is a wonderful moody space with plenty of storage space in the form of wardrobes, drawers, and a shelving system above the bed.
A glass door opens to the apartment’s private garden.
The walls in the bedroom are painted in ‘Pantalon’ by Farrow & Ball.
The moody color palette continues in the bathroom, featuring a large walk-in shower and a sculptural sink from Tikamoon.
The second bedroom is now used as a home office and also gives access to the garden.
The apartment is listed for £525,000 at Inigo.
