Fordwych Road, West Hampstead, NW2 3NJ

Luxury called. It wants its flat back.

This beautifully renovated two bedroom home on Fordwych Road has been conceived as a calm retreat from the city, pairing the proportions and character of its Victorian setting with a rich, contemporary finish. Traditional cornicing sits alongside statement Farrow & Ball tones, while considered lighting, bespoke hidden storage and carefully chosen materials bring a sense of warmth and quiet luxury throughout. The result is a home that feels individual and beautifully resolved, rather than simply refurbished.

The living spaces have been designed as much around atmosphere as function. A fireplace creates a natural focal point for winter evenings, while the balcony offers a peaceful spot for coffee on brighter mornings. Considerable thought has also gone into the comfort of the home, with extensive insulation and soundproofing improvements, including acoustic French windows to the principal bedroom, alongside a dedicated ventilation and extraction system that maintains a comfortable living environment throughout the year. The kitchen and bathroom continue the same attention to detail, with quality fittings, clever integrated storage and a spa like approach to lighting and finish. The property is also offered chain free.

Fordwych Road is a handsome residential street in NW2, well placed for the independent shops, cafés and restaurants of West Hampstead, Kilburn and Willesden Green. Hampstead Heath is within easy reach for longer walks and open green space, while the surrounding neighbourhood offers an appealing balance between the energy of north west London and quieter residential living. Excellent transport connections provide straightforward access across London, making this a particularly well positioned base for the city.
