Description
The interior décor is both neutral and uplifting in tone with the recent addition of a fully refurbished bathroom suite set to the rear of the half landing, between the raised ground and first floor.
Moving to the upper levels, there are two rooms on each floor, with a southerly facing reception to the front on the first floor, featuring a period fireplace, bespoke cabinetry and shelving, high ceilings and sash windows. In addition to this level is the kitchen-dining room to the rear. The upper floor features two generously proportioned double bedrooms, both with bespoke storage (with the second bedroom currently arranged as a home office).
All the property windows have been replaced with double-glazed throughout since the current owners have been in residence.
The airy hallway opens onto the rear terrace, and also leads up to a fantastic roof garden, both welcoming in form. The Roof Garden offers a 360-degree panoramic with sunshine throughout the day. It presents an opportunity to furnish with seating, dining, planters, and partial screening where necessary, and also affording sensational views of the London skyline. There is dedicated lighting for evening dining in the summer months as well as water and electricity points. The rear terrace is a more informal affair, ideal for morning coffee or working from home in the warmer months of the year.
Leighton Road is a brilliant location, nestled between the northern and southern ends of central Kentish Town and is predominantly of classical Georgian and Victorian architecture from the 1790s to the mid-1860s, and runs east from Kentish Town Road to Brecknock Rood.
