1 bed flat for sale

Charlton Kings Road, London NW5

Architecture & Interior

The space is defined by its soaring 14ft ceilings and an extraordinary expanse of original south-facing Crittall windows over 7ft in height. Sunlight cascades across the painted concrete floors, animating the volume of the vast, open-plan interior with a dynamic interplay of light and shadow.

Originally home to the owner’s high-end photography studio, the apartment now presents as a versatile one-bedroom mezzanine layout.

At one end, a sleek kitchen sits under the mezzanine bedroom. The surrounding floor area hosts a sizeable dining spot sitting under the expansive windows. A corner door yields deep storage and guest WC.

Crossing the floor area to the opposite side of the space, a smaller second kitchen along with shower room and storage cupboard are the remnants of a what was a self contained studio space that could be easily re-instated and enjoyed again.

Air space at this end of the apartment could also be re-imagined by creating a second mezzanine to reflect the opposite level installed by the owner. All subject to the usual consent and planning of course. Alternatively, interior Crittall walls might be a more design led solution to creating rooms.

Beyond the apartment, an unallocated parking space (on a first come first served basis) sits within a secure gated courtyard, complete with EV charging points.

Whilst fully converted to residential use in 2023, the property’s industrial styling & configuration provides a blue print for lateral living whether the intention is to just live or live and work from home.
