Just a short walk from the greenery of Hyde Park, close to tube stations, bus routes and a selection of department stores, restaurants and shops, Apt. 20, on Upper Berkeley Street offers a peaceful haven in the heart of the city.

A handsome bay fronted red-brick building, make your way up the steps to the portered entrance lobby. Take the stairs to the second floor and make your way in through the private front door.

Welcome home. Dressed in a neutral palette, crisp white skirtings and architraves frame the doors which open up off the bright entrance hall. Spotlighting overhead shines down on the wooden flooring underfoot. Note the chrome light switch, denoting the high standard of finish throughout.

Ahead, storage is found in a large cupboard next door to the chic and stylish bathroom. Chequered black and white floor tiles with a marblesque sheen lie underfoot, harmonising perfectly with the contemporary white metro tiles to the wall.

In keeping with the monochrome motif, matt black taps and shower head accompany the furnishings, which include a bath, wash basin and WC. Note the quirky lattice-style of the glass shower screen. Functionality and personality come together beautifully for spa hotel-style luxury bathing.

From the entrance hall, make your way through to the light-filled, open-plan living-dining room. Wooden flooring continues underfoot from the hallway, while daylight streams in through a wide sash window to the side and through a wall of French doors to another side, which open out to a balcony.

Pale grey tones to the walls contrast soothingly to the fresh white of the deep cornicing and spotlight infused ceiling above. Relax and unwind on the sofa with a Saturday night movie, or enjoy drinks on the balcony terrace, where robust decking lies underfoot, soaking up the sunshine. A spacious balcony, curving round to the side, where better to enjoy drinks with friends before heading out to the theatre?

Within easy reach of the semi-open plan kitchen, dine indoors at the table, an internal window above retains a connection between the kitchen, accessed off the dining area, and the main entertaining area beyond.

Cook up a feast for friends in the comprehensively equipped kitchen, tiled to the walls in the same monochromatic fashion as the bathroom for a sense of cohesion and flow. Storage is maximised, with a clever pull-out pantry cupboard to one end, fitted with spice drawers. Integrated appliances include an induction hob, extractor hood, microwave, oven, dishwasher and washing machine. An undermounted sink with grooved drainage is inset within the granite worktops.

Returning to the entrance hall, slumber awaits in the master bedroom, where there is space for a double bed, bedside tables and also room for a desk beneath one of the two large sash windows which draw daylight in. Fitted wardrobes provide plenty of storage.

With access to the exclusive Portman Square Garden, step out into around one hectare of private, landscaped lawns, bordered by established planting and spring bulbs. Shelter beneath the boughs of the magnificent London plane trees and stroll along the meandering paths. Enjoy a game of tennis on the maintained courts or take the kids for an afternoon on the play area. Enjoy the seclusion and serenity of this peaceful, verdant space.
