Tree lined and characterised by elegant townhouses, Cambridge Road rises north from Western Road and Brunswick. Built during the 19th Century, these substantial homes were intended as one dwelling but have since been converted into spacious apartments such as this one. Brunswick Town has long been heralded as one of the most sought-after locations in the city, and it is easy to see why. Striking period architecture, the seaside location, excellent commuter links and a vibrant café culture all add to its appeal.

This apartment building holds a corner plot, so its entrance is on Lansdowne Road where grand double doors sit below a classic portico entrance. Within the communal ways, original stairs wend up to the upper floors where your door is clearly numbered on the second floor. Stepping inside it is immediately clear this is a beautifully presented home designed by those with a keen eye for colour and contemporary interiors.

Within the entrance hall, a forest of silver birch trees rise up the walls in Cole & Son’s famous design. Your eye is then drawn to the exceptional open plan living room and kitchen at the far end as natural light streams in through the generous bay window almost covering the westerly elevation. Sanded and varnished wood flooring makes way for pale oak herringbone floors. The first pops of colour are found in here with azure blue walls below the picture rails and ochre within the kitchen, all offset by a white ceiling and splashback tiling. Patterned floor tiles add another layer of interest to the kitchen space, which while open to the room, is visually separated by a central island breakfast bar sitting below pendant lighting. There are plenty of shaker style cabinets, also in blue, providing plenty of storage, while space has been left for a freestanding fridge freezer and cooker. The washing machine and tumble dryer are usefully hidden within a utility cupboard within the bathroom.

A vision in monochrome tones, the bathroom has a modern take on a period style which suits the space perfectly. Patterned and brick tiles adorn the walls and floor, while stylish House of Hackney wallpaper brings an element of fun.

Bedroom two sits opposite the bathroom, and while it is dressed as a child’s room at present, it would also be ideal as a tranquil home office and guest bedroom. The principal room is a generous double with chocolate brown walls and dark wood flooring, yet it remains light and airy due to its open views and white ceiling. Even with a king size bed, the floor space is not compromised, allowing for larger pieces of freestanding bedroom furniture.
