Lissenden Gardens, Kentish Town, London, NW5

Architecture & Interior? ?

‘The Wedge' - a one of a kind, semi detached property on the edge of the revered Lissenden Gardens estate. Despite being a leasehold property, it is an entirely independent home, with its own front door & private front and rear gardens.?

Throughout the home are wonderful period features, wood flooring, tall ceilings and beautiful natural light.

Various rooms are on different levels, making for a quirky, one of a kind home unlike anything else in the immediate area.

As you walk through the bespoke front gate, you escape into your own little enclave. The front garden is fully enclosed with mature shrubs and a beautiful olive tree, creating a perfect spot to relax. There is also side return access from here to a covered storage area.

Entering through the front door, the entrance hallway is beautifully bright. Immediately to your right, the reception room has great proportions and has a wonderful view over the front garden from a huge Edwardian bay window.

Directly opposite, the kitchen is set down into the lower ground floor and has a lovely country feel. The rear garden accessible from here, catches the afternoon sun and feels like you are in a different world.

Up on to the first floor, the principal bedroom shares a double stacked bay window with the ground floor, which is common for Edwardian architecture. This room has fantastic square footage and is a wonderful space with a leafy view over the Lissenden Gardens.?

The principle bathroom is adjacent, comprising a lovely walk-in shower, W/C and wash basin. There is a clever dressing room in-between, perfectly designed to compliment the bathroom.

Onto the top floor, the second bedroom is bright, airy with a special feature fireplace. The second bathroom opposite has been finished with a deep free-standing bath, W/C & wash basin finished in a neutral palate and a beamed ceiling.

Finally on the ground floor is a utility room, with fantastic storage & space for a separate washing machine and dryer.
