3 bed town house for sale

Betterton Street, Covent Garden WC2H

This striking freehold townhouse is located with Covent Garden’s Seven Dials Conservation Area and seamlessly merges history with modernity to create a truly unique contemporary home in the heart of London’s West End, featuring two terraces and a flexible internal layout.

In its current guise, this handsome former drapery has an air of New York Brownstone to it, having undergone comprehensive modernisation and reconfiguration in recent years. A modern specification, architectural flourishes and both classic and contemporary finishes blend with traditional painted joinery and panelling plus the warm weathered patina of the wonderful original brickwork exposed throughout the home.

The primary living spaces have been created around a central double height atrium, with a dining area situated on the mezzanine level and a wonderful contemporary kitchen and snug on the lower level. Carefully considered placement of rooflights along with generous windows allow natural light, enhancing the sense of space and volume.

A modern architect designed open-tread timber & steel staircase links the lower level with the ground floor, with a more traditional staircase linking the remaining three floors. Bedrooms are presented in a more classic style, with a mix of materials including lovely painted joinery, walls with timber panelling and original timber floors.

All bathrooms have been remodelled in recent years in a classic contemporary style with neutral tones and mix of natural stone and tiled finishes. The shower & laundry rooms located under the pavement vaults on the lower ground floor are presented in their original London Stock brickwork.

There are two private terraces on the second and third floors providing usable outside space, a rarity in West End homes.
