Why you’ll like it:
The gracious townhouses surrounding Seven Dials certainly live up to their Regal names. This terraced house sits just two minutes from the cafes, shops and the station, so it is perfectly located for exploring and working in the city. With plenty of kerb appeal, its grand cream façade is adorned with the architectural features of the period, with wide stone steps leading to your front door.

Stepping into the apartment, a generous entrance hall greets you and it is immediately apparent that this is a well-maintained and modern apartment. Soft fawn carpet flows into the principal rooms, with the eye first drawn to the elegant sitting room spanning the front of the building with a wide bay sash window to bring in plenty of natural light from the southeast. In a room of this size, the bay provides the perfect spot for a dining table and chairs to seat six, while there is ample space elsewhere for comfortable furnishings and space to work from home if need be. A grand marble fireplace takes centre stage, complemented by a stylish yet neutral decoration, so you can add your own scheme with furnishings and adornments.

Peacefully located to the rear of the building, the bedroom shares the high ceilings as the living room which allows for a useful storage area high above your head and deep alcoves for wardrobes which maximise the floor space. The bathroom is conveniently next door between the two rooms. Clever lighting, glass panels and a rainfall shower create a spa-like feel to the room which also boasts contemporary sanitaryware, a heated towel rail and a vanity unit below the basin.

Likewise, the kitchen is equally streamlined with a high gloss finish and stone worktops. The views are a joy to wash up to and there is plenty of storage space. Within the cabinets, the oven and gas hob are integrated, leaving space for a washing machine and tall fridge freezer which may be negotiable with the sale.
