5 bedroom terraced house for sale

Set on St Ann’s Villas, this beautifully restored five-bedroom house extends to approximately 2,955 sq ft and combines strong period character with a carefully considered renovation. The house has been comprehensively refurbished in conjunction with a heritage consultant, with original features reinstated throughout and every finish chosen to sit comfortably within the architecture. There is a clear sense of tasteful restraint to the interiors, with the renovation favouring proportion, materiality and architectural integrity over anything overly decorative or imposed. The raised ground floor is arranged around a bright bay-fronted reception room to the front and a generous dining room to the rear, creating a layout that works well for both entertaining and day-to-day family life. The proportions are excellent throughout, with high ceilings, restored cornicing and a strong sense of volume from room to room. To the rear, the kitchen has been designed by Cast London and finished with bespoke joinery, Fisher & Paykel appliances and excellent built-in storage. The detailing throughout the house has been handled with real consistency, with finishes including Lefroy Brooks hardware, Corston architectural fittings, Little Greene paints and wallpapers by Schumacher and Arte. The current owner works in the art world, and there is a strong visual coherence to the interiors as a result, with each room feeling thoughtfully composed without losing the warmth of a family home. The lower ground floor adds a huge amount of flexibility and is currently arranged to provide two further bedrooms, a reception room, a bathroom and a secondary kitchen. It works particularly well as a guest floor, for older children, live-in help or longer-term visiting family, but could also lend itself to separate occupation, subject to the relevant planning and configuration remaining in place. As such, it also offers the potential to generate meaningful income, while still allowing for strong connection to the main house if desired. The principal bedroom is arranged on the first floor and is served by a large bathroom and an adjoining family room, which is currently used as a private dressing suite as well as a more informal sitting room. The remaining bedrooms are set across the upper floors, and the overall layout is practical and well balanced, with a good distinction between formal entertaining space, family living and bedroom accommodation. To the rear, the house opens onto a notably large private garden, which is a rare feature for this part of west London and gives the house a real sense of openness. There is also excellent storage throughout, including a fully insulated and boarded loft. St Ann’s Villas is one of Holland Park’s most attractive residential streets, positioned moments from Holland Park itself and within easy reach of Holland Park Avenue, Clarendon Cross and Notting Hill. Julie’s, Supermarket of Dreams and a wide range of local cafs, restaurants and shops are all close by, while Westfield is also within walking distance.
