Full property description

***THE FLAT HAS RECENTLY BEEN REFURBISHED AND WE ARE NOW AWAITING A NEW SOFA TO ARRIVE***

This newly refurbished two bedroom flat sits on the 18th floor of a 1960’s high rise building. This is one of five tower blocks built for Camden Council on the land historically owned by Eton College and each of the towers is named after a village near Eton: Dorney, Bray, Burnham, and Taplow. This is an example of the controversial urban planning model called the 'Plan Voisin' or 'neighbour plan' conceived by Le Corbusier.

The Tour

Set back from the Adelaide and Winchester Road, there is lift entry to the 18th floor (Two lifts available). The apartment sits on the 18th floor; it opens to a hallway with a storage cupboard. The flat is bright and spacious and stands at 796 sq ft.

On entry, there is an immediate sense of tranquility. Laminate wood floors and white wash walls throughout. The main living area is bright and spacious and holds floor to ceiling windows with panoramic views across London which are incredible. There are 2 double bedrooms finished in wood flooring. The galley kitchen is a subtle area for cooking a wonderful meal with excellent wood cabinetry. There is a separate bathroom and toilet.

The Area

Adelaide and Winchester Road sits in a charming pocket by Swiss Cottage. As such, there are a host of excellent independent shops, restaurants and cultural hubs within walking distance. The Swiss Cottage Farmers’ Market, which takes residence every Wednesday, and the Hampstead Theatre are both found on Eton Avenue.

Belsize Park is a short distance to the north; here, popular spots include The Wellington Pub, famed locally for their Sunday roasts, Terra Moderna, a delicious Antipodean-inspired Italian restaurant, and boulangerie and patisserie Sable d’Or.

The Basil Spence-designed Swiss Cottage Library and Swiss Cottage Leisure Centre and swimming pool, and the Odeon cinema and IMAX are under four minutes away. While the shops, delis and cafes of England’s Lane, including a traditional butcher, are under five minutes’ walk, as well as a Waitrose in Finchley Road. Within 10 minutes’ walk are the green spaces of Primrose Hill Park.

The grassy banks of Primrose Hill and leafy walkways of Regent’s Park are just a few minutes walk from the home and provide access to the Regent’s Canal path. The green oasis of Hampstead Heath and its swimming ponds, tennis courts, running track and Kenwood House are also walkable from Adelaide Road

Within four minutes’ walk is Swiss Cottage station (Jubilee line) and good bus and cycle connections. Also within easy reach are Belsize Park and Chalk Farm stations (Northern line).
