3 bed flat to rent

Wyfold Road, London SW6

Occupying the fourth and fifth floors of a one-time paint factory, this standout lateral apartment hints at its industrial heritage. Soaring vaulted ceilings, exposed timber beams and arched Crittall windows add to the voluminous, open feel. Take your own key-activated lift straight up to the entrance hallway and step into impressive open-plan living quarters that stretch over 16-metres in length.

Space is abundant throughout. Kitchen, dining and living areas flow into each other, illuminated by two sets of double doors that provide access to an enclosed balcony. Additional light pours through a west-facing Crittall window, softening the loft-like aesthetic. An array of plush sofas and integrated bookcases contribute to the sense of warmth and cosiness.

Sitting beneath a glass void, the convivial dining area is made for entertaining around the large 10-seater table. The adjoining kitchen has an ergonomic edge, with stainless steel and Corian worktops and a Britannia range cooker.

All three bedrooms showcase the building’s impressive bones: Think painted brick walls, sloping, timber-strutted ceilings and large windows. The results are calming and conducive to switching off. Found off the main living space, the principal suite enjoys ample storage space, with fitted wardrobes running along an entire wall. The adjoining Jack-and-Jill style bathroom elevates the feeling of luxury – note the walk-in shower, steam room and the eye-catching green mosaic tiles warmed by underfloor heating.

Two further bedrooms sit in the furthest wing, off the kitchen. One features access to a balcony as well as a curved wall of glass blocks that dials up the sense of brightness. A contemporary bathroom serves both rooms.

The showpiece awaits on the floor above. A spiral staircase leads to a magnificent glass conservatory with an apex roof. Sliding doors on each side open onto a vast terrace that offer panoramic cityscape views.

Wyfold Road sits at the intersection of Fulham and Parson’s Green, promising an array of cafés, restaurants and riverside scenery on the doorstep. Days here start best with pastries from Little Sourdough Kitchen just around the corner followed by coffee from Carbon Kopi. To stretch the legs, the Thames Path is a 10-minute walk away; the green spaces of Bishops Park and Fulham Palace Gardens are also in strolling distance. Ruth Rogers’ Michelin-starred Italian restaurant The River Café is unmatched for lunch or dinner. Finish off a memorable meal with a drink at riverside pub The Crabtree.
