The first floor features the generous principal suite equipped with ample wardrobes and storage; steps lead down to the en-suite with bath, Brazilian marble shower and additional wardrobes.

A second bedroom enjoys a large glazed roof and ensuite bathroom; two further bedrooms share a bathroom and living space.

The extension contains an exceptionally large open-plan kitchen, offering a central island, Bulthaup units and Gaggenau appliances. This bright and versatile space includes a glass-ceilinged dining area and a reception room arranged around a hanging fireplace. It is lined with floor-to-ceiling windows, while sliding French doors open onto the courtyard offering a seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining space.

This level also offers a more private reception room with bookshelves, media equipment and a further fireplace. Next door is a study, and both spaces provide garden access. Finally, the extension includes a fifth bedroom with ensuite bathroom, a crows-nest study space, and sliding doors opening onto a private courtyard.

The poured concrete floors include underfloor heating, while the glass frames and doors were commissioned from Fineline Architectural Glass. On completion in 2007, the property was recognised with a prestigious RIBA award, and has since been extensively refurbished.

Provost Road is an attractive street lined with pastel-painted houses. It belongs to the highly desirable triangle of Georgian terraces that surround the Victorian church of St Saviour’s. These quiet residential streets are moments away from the restaurants, cafes and boutiques of the sought-after village of Primrose Hill.

From here, Chalk Farm underground station is close, giving easy access to the West End, the City and the international links of St Pancras. To the south, the open spaces of Primrose Hill park slope down towards Regent’s Park. Meanwhile, Hampstead and its ancient Heath lie to the north.
