The property

Tucked away in the North West corner of Brunswick Square is this immaculately presented two-bedroom ground-floor apartment. Renovated to a high standard in the past four years, it has been transformed into a luxury home that compliments the heritage of the building while providing practical, modern living solutions.

As you step through the front door, you're welcomed by a hallway adorned in the elegant Farrow & Ball Sulking Room Pink, offering a preview of the sophisticated style that flows throughout the apartment. At the front of the property, the principal bedroom stands out with its stunning curved front wall and window overlooking the Square. High ceilings are beautifully accented by ornate coving, a ceiling rose, and the striking original Carrera marble Regency fireplace. Adding to the room's luxurious atmosphere is an exquisite 18th-century French enamelled copper slipper bath.

The shower room, kitchen, and WC have undergone the most remarkable transformations under the current owners' care. The shower room features stunning emerald green, handmade Mexican tiles, complemented by a luxurious heated marble seat. Underfloor heating adds extra comfort, while antique tiles reclaimed from a Seville manor complete the elegant design. A large antique sink, topped with matching marble from the shower, adds to the room's charm. The WC has been upgraded to the same high standard, featuring underfloor heating, the same antique floor tiles, House of Hackney wallpaper, and a classic Thomas Crapper basin.

The kitchen, handcrafted by the local family-run company Middleton Bespoke, is a true centrepiece of the apartment, offering its own undeniable wow factor. Built from oak and hand-painted in a rich deep green, it is beautifully complemented by Arabescato marble countertops, a matching splashback, and windowsill. The antique chequered floor tiles, also reclaimed from a manor in Seville, add a touch of timeless elegance. No expense has been spared, with features including a Belfast sink with a period-style mixer tap and top-of-the-line appliances like a F. Bertazzoni Italia range oven. For the keen cook, a hidden pantry cupboard with a marble shelf and built-in lighting provides a delightful extra touch.

Double doors lead through from the kitchen into the bright and spacious living room at the rear of the apartment. Bathed in light by three West aspect 8ft high multi-paned sash windows this is a beautiful room in which to relax, dine, or work from home. The room features a grand original fireplace, with ornate coving beautifully enhanced by the soft hue of the walls. One of the windows, fitted with charming quarter doors, opens onto a private west-facing sun terrace. Tranquil and serene, this outdoor space is ideal for enjoying a morning coffee or summer al fresco dining.
