this generously proportioned lateral apartment lies on the fourth floor of a handsome red-brick building and enjoys direct views across the treetops of regent’s park. the building’s uniformed entrance hall sets a confident tone, while inside the flat unfolds with the easy balance of space and light that characterises the best mansion-block living.
two substantial reception rooms sit to the front of the plan, each anchored by deep bay windows that frame the park beyond. these are graceful, flexible spaces, suited equally to formal entertaining or everyday family life. one reception flows naturally through to the kitchen, creating a sociable sequence of rooms without sacrificing their individual character.
the kitchen is arranged as a large eat-in room, with ample space for dining and informal gatherings. it forms the practical heart of the home, positioned to feel connected to the living areas while remaining distinct. the layout across the apartment is notably well considered, with a long central hallway providing a clear sense of separation between living and sleeping accommodation.
four bedrooms are quietly positioned to the rear and side of the building. the principal bedroom is particularly impressive, occupying the curved corner of the block with a broad bay and excellent proportions. two further double bedrooms and a fourth bedroom offer versatility as guest accommodation, a study or nursery.
the apartment is served by two well-appointed bathrooms and is presented in good condition throughout, ready to be enjoyed without immediate work.
north gate is one of st john’s wood’s most respected portered buildings. residents benefit from 24-hour uniformed porterage, a passenger lift to all floors, secure first-come-first-served parking within the private driveway and access to communal gardens. electric vehicle charging points add a useful modern convenience.
living on prince albert road places regent’s park quite literally on the doorstep, with its rose gardens, boating lake and open lawns forming an extension of everyday life. st john’s wood high street is a short walk away, offering independent delis, cafés and long-established restaurants alongside practical amenities and the jubilee line from st john’s wood underground station. lord’s cricket ground, primrose hill and the canal paths of little venice are all within easy reach, making this one of north-west london’s most enduringly appealing addresses.
