2 bed flat for sale

Brooklands, Ealing Common W3

This exceptional two-bedroom, two-bathroom ground-floor apartment forms part of Brooklands, an impressive period building that has been meticulously restored and converted into a collection of individually designed homes.

One of the apartment’s most distinctive features is its sense of privacy and independence. Rather than entering through the main communal areas of the building, the property is approached through its own secure gated entrance, leading through the private garden to the apartment’s own front door. This creates an unusual feeling of arriving at a private home rather than a conventional apartment.

The private garden is another significant feature. Wrapping around the front and side of the property, it provides a generous outside space exclusively for the apartment and complements the impressive proportions of the accommodation within.

Internally, the apartment benefits from the full scale of the original building, with magnificent ceilings approaching three metres in height. The principal living space is particularly impressive, combining the kitchen, dining and reception areas within one beautifully proportioned room. A striking original turret forms part of the living space, creating a wonderful architectural focal point and a naturally defined dining area surrounded by windows.

The restoration has been carefully considered to retain the character and grandeur of the original building while introducing a high-quality contemporary specification. Period-inspired detailing includes decorative wall panelling, substantial coving and deep skirting boards, complemented by timber double-glazed sash windows and beautiful herringbone flooring.

The kitchen has been finished to a high specification with extensive fitted cabinetry, integrated appliances, stone work surfaces and carefully considered joinery, while the two bathrooms have been individually designed with contemporary sanitaryware, large-format tiling and quality fittings.

There are two well-proportioned bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes and its own en-suite shower room, together with a separate family bathroom.

What makes this apartment particularly special is the combination of features rarely found together: A secure private gated entrance, its own front door, a substantial private garden, three-metre ceilings and the remarkable turret incorporated into the living accommodation. Combined with the quality of the restoration and the architectural character of Brooklands, it creates a ground-floor apartment that feels considerably more individual than a typical conversion.

Rather than simply creating another apartment development, the developers have undertaken a genuine passion project, carefully blending the building’s rich heritage with modern design and craftsmanship. The result is a collection of homes that successfully combines timeless architecture with contemporary living
