Barlby Road

United Kingdom Sotheby’s International Realty are thrilled to present this architectural masterpiece. Built by award-winning studio Powell Tuck Associates, the house is beautifully designed, laid out behind private gates and built into the basement. Set around a series of courtyards and gardens, the clever layout means the house feels like a calm oasis in the heart of North Kensington.

Externally, the house is defined by clean lines, created out of concrete and wood, punctuated by wide swathes of glazing. Internally, the thoughtful design continues; a palette of tactile and organic materials balances the swathes of natural light and clean edges. Bespoke fireplaces, a Corten-effect kitchen, and innovative features, such as an iPad-controlled system for underfloor heating, air conditioning, AV, and lighting, add to the considered result.

Created on an upside-down plan, the ground floor opens up to the open-plan living area, which encompasses two reception spaces, a dining area, a home office, and a kitchen. A cantilevered staircase leads to the lower level, where lightwells illuminate a private gym, dedicated cinema, and three-bedroom suites. On the top floor is a masterful bedroom suite, featuring a corridor of wardrobes, an airy sleeping area with garden views, and a beautifully appointed ensuite. The property also includes a south-facing walled garden designed by Stuart Craine, winner of the Chelsea Flower Show, gated off-street parking, and a ten-year new home warranty.

Set in North Kensington, the location combines a serene, community-oriented atmosphere with proximity to West London’s finest destinations, including White City House, Westfield, Westbourne Grove, Portobello Road, and Golborne Road.
