A true one-off, this joyful and design-led one-bedroom apartment sits within a striking Victorian double-fronted building, offering a rare share of freehold and exceptional turnkey interiors throughout. Nestled on one of N15’s most sought-after residential streets and overlooking the 12-hectare expanse of Downhills Park, this soulful sanctum offers a rare sense of calm, creativity, and residential privacy.

From the moment you enter, vibrant colour and thoughtful detailing signal that this is not your average flat. The entrance hallway is a sunny greeting, painted in bright lemon-yellow, while the bathroom, a terracotta refuge, features underfloor heating and contemporary fittings. The lovingly restored original floorboards are a masterstroke beneath.

The main reception room is awash with rich, calming tones. Walls and ceilings are painted in a misty green-grey-blue, framing original sash windows and offering leafy park views. Architectural features animate every corner: recessed shelving, a dramatic ceiling pitch, and an elevated snug with sisal carpeting and banquette seating. Ambient lighting is layered throughout to create a space that shifts effortlessly from lively hosting to restorative calm.

Down a few steps, the recessed kitchen and dining area delivers both function and flair. Bespoke cabinetry, concealed appliances, and cleverly integrated lighting create a cohesive, contemporary space suited to entertaining and everyday ease.

The bedroom is a restful sanctuary, painted in tranquil sage and stone tones with large fitted wardrobes. A built-in projector and drop-down screen transform the room into a private cinema at the touch of a button.

Additional highlights include excellent storage throughout, including a loft space above the bathroom. The recently refurbished communal hallway restores original Victorian tiling and cornicing.
