A Three-Bedroom Duplex Apartment with a Large Roof Terrace in London
This three-bedroom apartment is located on the first and second floors of a handsome Victorian brick townhouse in the Willesden Green Conservation Area.
The 1,360-square-foot home was carefully renovated by its current owners, pairing its many original features with a cohesive color palette of soft, neutral hues.
The interior spaces are beautiful, welcoming, and packed with historical elements, but on the top floor hides a true gem: a lovely roof terrace with potted plants, sun beds, and lounge furniture.
The living room is situated at the front of the plan, with walls painted in “Green Smoke” by Farrow & Ball.
The room features beautiful moldings, a cast-iron fireplace with decorative tiles, and a large box bay window that floods the room with light and provides a natural spot for the dining table.
Large French doors, painted in Farrow & Ball’s “Railings,” open into the kitchen and breakfast room.
In the kitchen, the island is the central gathering spot in the room (and the house), and the room also features a beautiful brick floor, laid in a herringbone pattern.
The bespoke white cabinets are paired with an Arabescato quartz worktop, a butler sink with a brass deVOL tap, and a Britannia range cooker.
The guest bedroom is also located on the lower floor, featuring high ceilings, egg and dart cornicing, and timber floorboards.
The guest bathroom is decorated with yellow Artemis wallpaper from House of Hackney, a marble checkerboard floor, and a walk-in shower with a Crittall glass screen and ‘Hoxton Green’ gloss porcelain tiles from Mandarin Stone.
Via a staircase with a sisal runner, you enter the top floor with two more bedrooms and a bathroom.
The master bedroom is flooded with light thanks to the large box bay window. The room also has a cast-iron fireplace and an en-suite bathroom.
The en-suite bathroom pairs the “Artemis” wallpaper with double sinks and a classic marble checkerboard floor.
From the landing, you can enter the roof terrace that is positioned between the first and second floors.
The space is enclosed by brick walls and feels very private. There is enough room for lounge furniture and a dining table, and it offers nice views of the tops of the Jasmine trees and the city of London.
The apartment is listed for £1.050.000 at Inigo.
