Elm Walk, Hampstead

Built in a neo-Georgian style, the handsome proeprty is situated on one of the area’s best and most desirable roads, within a short distance of Hampstead Village and Hampstead Heath. The double fronted house has sash windows, a grand pedimented entrance and pleasingly symmetrical elevations under a hipped roof: all the hallmarks of a Georgian home but in a modern construction, with no expense spared internally. A dark, moody aesthetic is achieved by the complementary dark wood floors, doors and wooden trim, feature lighting and a background palette of cool, neutral shades. The kitchen is a particular highlight, with marble work surfaces, ample cabinetry, and a range of appliances including a Rangemaster stove.

The expansive accommodation is arranged across three floors, extending to almost 4,000 sq ft with generously proportioned rooms throughout. Downstairs, an inviting entrance hall leads to a formal dining room, office with bay window and dual aspect reception room which opens to the rear garden via a set of French doors. The kitchen is open plan, with a central island serving as a breakfast bar and an adjoining family room in a later extension. A utility room with space for laundry machines is tucked in a corner of the garage.

Upstairs, first floor accommodation is arranged around a central landing. The principal bedroom is a fantastic space, the bedroom leading to its own private sitting room, dressing room and en suite bathroom. There is a further en suite bedroom ideally suited to guests, and two further double bedrooms – which interconnect – sharing a family bathroom. On the second floor, the two remaining bedrooms are en suite and built-in storage.

The layout and size of the bedrooms lends the house well to larger families and multi-generational living. The house is set behind a pretty front garden: two parcels of lawn bisected by a pedestrian path, behind a low fence. Shrubs and mature hedging and trees border the house, adding colour and interest, while a private driveway sits to the right of the lawned area, leading up to an attached garage.

The rear garden faces south-west and measures 60 x 40 feet, arranged across two levels and laid to low-maintenance astroturf. A deck adjoins the back of the house providing an outside space for dining alfresco.
