D2691 - Contemporary West Acton house

London W3

Location details

Description:

Substantial family house in Acton/Ealing Common. It offers approximately 2,800 sq ft spread over three floors with 10 ft high ceilings on the ground level. A mix of contemporary and original features - with a surprising amount of depth and width. The house has been completely renovated. One of the most impressive aspects of the house is its large and wide open space in the back of the house (where the kitchen is sited). This section of the house is roughly 10m long by 6.6m wide. Floor to ceiling sliding doors lead through to the garden. Three slanted, thin windows next to the sliding doors, offer architectural interest in this section of the space. This is a contemporary, bright space, benefitting from the warmth of its west facing aspect - decorated along one wall with Cole & Son’s Birch trees and a coral wall in a section of wall nearest the garden. The kitchen has geometric tiling while the entire floor has off-white tiling which has been laid in a herringbone pattern. There is an additional large double living area towards the front of the house which homes a games room and sitting room. Cole & Son’s blue Hex is featured on the main section of wall in the living room - which has a palette of corals, greys and yellow in the decor. The hallway is tiled in a black & white original Victorian flower pattern - with a stained glass door. A wide stairwell with a roof skylight flooding light through the hall, leads to two further floors upstairs. The family bathroom has particular interest with a blue free standing bath, herringbone tiling in the shower (blue/turquiose tiles with white) and a black and white geometric floor. The third floor (which is a converted loft space) has two further double bedrooms and a bathroom. The palette of colours and themes continues with geometric tiling in the bathroom and strong colours in the bedrooms including lime green coloured laminate flooring adding an unusual touch.
