2 bedroom apartment

This two-bedroom home is nestled within the striking Kingsland Estate, designed in the late 1960s under pioneering Camden architect Sydney Cook, it is a masterclass in mid-century modern design.

Built with a focus on light, space, and community, the property offers a seamless blend of urban living and natural tranquillity. At the back, the windows overlook a serene wildflower meadow at Barrow Hill Reservoir, evoking a countryside feel, while the front provides vibrant views towards St John’s Wood. 

The home spans three thoughtfully designed half-levels, connected by a striking double-height stairwell. The design ethos champions minimalism, using raw materials like concrete, steel, and glass, complemented by sensitive updates that enhance the original architecture.

Recent renovations include the removal of a kitchen wall to create an open-plan dining space, the addition of floor to ceiling doors, and a reconfiguration of the bathrooms to maximize functionality. Cohesive design details, such as black-framed apertures, cork flooring, and brushed brass accents, create a timeless, monochromatic palette that feels both contemporary and in harmony with the mid-century aesthetic.

The estate itself fosters a convivial yet private atmosphere, with its low-rise scissor section maisonettes set around a landscaped courtyard. Direct access to Primrose Hill Park offers a gateway to one of London’s most beloved green spaces, with panoramic views of the city skyline, and a vibrant café culture come together. The neighbourhood boasts a host of independent shops, stylish restaurants, and cultural landmarks, all contributing to its village-like charm.

 Transport options are excellent, with St John’s Wood (Jubilee Line) and Chalk Farm (Northern Line) stations nearby, offering swift access to central London. The property is also within easy reach of Camden Town and Regent’s Park, making it perfectly positioned for both work and leisure.

This home is not just a place to live but an architectural statement, offering a rare combination of mid-century design, natural beauty, and urban convenience
