unexpected in both scale and design, this four-bedroom house on the chelse a-fulham border has been entirely rebuilt to create a contemporary family home of remarkable volume and light. extending to 2,566 sq ft, the house unfolds across five levels, where striking architectural interventions sit behind a traditional victorian façade.
the sense of space is immediate. entering at raised ground-floor level, a spectacular reception room rises through two storeys beneath a dramatic double-height void. framed by bespoke metal balustrades and expansive glazing, the room is flooded with natural light and forms the architectural heart of the house. a separate study overlooks the front of the property, providing a peaceful workspace away from the principal living areas.
descending to the lower ground floor, the house opens into an impressive kitchen, dining and entertaining space extending over 27 ft in length. arranged around a substantial central island, the kitchen is fitted with sleek cabinetry and integrated appliances, while full-width sliding doors draw the garden into the room beyond. facing south-west, the landscaped garden enjoys sunshine throughout much of the day and provides an inviting setting for outdoor dining and entertaining.
also on this floor is a versatile media room, a utility room and a double bedroom with an ensuite bathroom. benefitting from a separate entrance, this level lends itself equally well to guest accommodation, a nanny suite or independent family living.
the first floor is occupied by two generous double bedrooms, both served by ensuite bathrooms, together with a practical utility area. crowning the house, the principal suite occupies the entire second floor. a spacious dressing room sits alongside the bedroom and bathroom, while doors open onto a private terrace overlooking the surrounding rooftops.
throughout, the house has been finished to an exacting standard, with air conditioning, double glazing, solar panels and integrated control4 smart-home technology enhancing everyday comfort. extensive storage has been thoughtfully incorporated across all levels.
waterford road occupies a sought-after position between the king′s road and fulham road, placing the amenities of both chelse a and fulham within easy reach. fulham broadway underground station is moments away, while the cafés, restaurants and independent shops of parsons green are a short stroll from the doorstep. eel brook common provides open green space, tennis courts and children′s play areas nearby, and the area is particularly well regarded for its excellent schools, including thomas′s fulham. combining contemporary architecture with one of southwest london′s most established residential settings, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a design-led family home in the heart of fulham.
