Garden Flat, London, NW3

There is something wonderfully unexpected about this home. Beyond its private entrance lies a beautifully designed home that offers a sense of calm in London. Filled with natural light and opening onto an exceptional landscaped garden, it offers many of the qualities buyers typically associate with a house, yet with the simplicity and convenience of apartment living. The heart of the home is a superb open-plan reception, dining and kitchen space that extends into the gorgeous private garden through large sliding doors. Whether entertaining friends, enjoying family gatherings or simply relaxing with a morning coffee, the garden becomes an extension of the living space throughout much of the year. Space and light are abundant throughout with generous ceiling height along with windows and skylights creating a welcoming and bright interior. The garden itself is a rare find in London. Meticulously maintained, it offers space to enjoy throughout the seasons - from al fresco dining beneath the pergola to quiet afternoons surrounded by mature trees and planting. At the far end of the garden, a charming versatile outbuilding provides additional flexibility for storage, hobbies or a peaceful retreat. Extending over 1,300 sq ft, the layout includes a principal bedroom with en-suite shower room, a second generous bedroom with ensuite shower room and a third bedroom along with a family bathroom. The property has been comprehensively renovated by the current owners to create a space that is both elegant and practical, with underfloor heating and excellent storage throughout. The location is equally appealing. Swiss Cottage Underground Station is moments away, providing swift connections across London, while the cafés, restaurants and village atmosphere of Primrose Hill are within easy reach. The open green spaces of Primrose Hill, the boutiques and restaurants of St John's Wood, Hampstead Village, Hampstead Theatre and some of London's most respected schools are all close by. For the current owners, the property has provided the ideal London base for the past fifteen years - a home large enough to welcome family and guests, yet secure, manageable and easy to leave when travelling. Offering a rare combination of light, privacy, exceptional outdoor space and connectivity, this is an ideal London home—equally suited to everyday living and entertaining or effortless lock-up-and-leave convenience.
