4 bed terraced house for sale

Augustine Road, Brook Green W14

Set back from the road behind a box hedge, this smart Victorian home unites the best of old and new. Benefitting from generous heritage proportions, it offers an impressive sense of space with three separate reception rooms spanning the ground floor – each ideally suited to family life.

Interiors have been updated with a contemporary stamp throughout. Bi-folding doors open the formal dining room up to the hallway, creating a great sense of synergy and circulation space. Finishes are elevated – two custom-made alcove cabinets feature mirrored panels, while a linear fireplace adds a modern accent that sets the tone for the adjoining kitchen. Here, lacquered grey surfaces and white streamlined units are striking in their minimalism. Ample storage and preparation room has been factored into the ergonomic layout, which includes integrated Bosch ovens and a gas hob.

Steps lead down into a bright living area, illuminated from above via a large skylight. Inviting the outside in, concertina doors fold back onto a peaceful courtyard terrace that separates the main house from an adjoining red-brick building, linked via a glazed corridor. Enjoying a sense of separation from the rest of the property, this space would make a great cinema room, office, or separate wing for guests. Up on the mezzanine level, there’s a handy sleeping space, served by a bathroom just below and a well-equipped utility room. A vaulted ceiling creates an uplifting atmosphere.

Four spacious bedrooms are spread across the top two floors. The standout is the principal suite, which enjoys an east-facing outlook, bathing the room in morning light. Mirrored panels lining either alcove heighten the sense of space, as does the oversized headboard panel, which stretches almost to the ceiling. A walk-through wardrobe sees to storage, while the en suite bathroom – covered in shimmering mosaic tiles – adds a touch of luxury. Two further guest suites are found on the second floor, finished in neutral tones with contemporary shower rooms.

Augustine Road is a peaceful residential street that runs through the Brook Green conservation area. There’s an inviting sense of community here, nestled amid the bustle of Kensington and Hammersmith. On Saturdays, pick up organic produce from the Brook Green farmers’ market followed by a game of tennis on the courts – both metres from your front door. Foodies will appreciate The Fishmongers Kitchen, The Brackenbury Wine Rooms, Le Petit Citron and Brook Green Whole Foods. For world-class entertainment, the Eventim Apollo is a short walk away.
