Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
There's no other way to say it. This laid back and luxurious family home is nothing short of incredible. While it looks relatively modest from the front, it's a true Tardis once you're inside, with a sizeable rear extension ready for an adventure in space and time. The original rooms at the front of the house are decorated in a stylish reimagining of Victorian style, with dark blue walls, plenty of mirrored surfaces and gold accents. Make your way towards the back, and separate rooms give way to an industrial-chic open kitchen and living area with soaring skylights and garden views through stunning Crittall doors – blurring the lines between indoors and out. The generous garden is an excellent place for the kids to let off some steam, but it really comes into its own during the warmer months when you're free to sit out and enjoy long evenings and alfresco dinners. Close to the heart of Hammersmith, you're remarkably well hidden from London's hustle and bustle on a charming street where almost every house has been painted a different pastel colour. And while the neighbourhood is peaceful, you're well-connected when it comes to public transport, with Ravenscourt Park station... just a half-mile walk away.
