Church Road

Selwyn Court is a handsome Art Deco building that wears its period credentials confidently but without fuss. Strong lines, rich brickwork and solid communal areas give it an appealing sense of permanence, with beautiful burnished wooden front doors providing just a little flourish.

​

Luckily, the flat is on the top floor. Light pours in from different directions and the outlook stretches across treetops and rooftops towards the London skyline. Up here, there’s a real sense of distance from the comings and goings below – peaceful, private and liberating.

​

It’s a proper three-bedroom flat too: spacious, well-proportioned and without compromise. The generous living room has wooden flooring, a fireplace and wide windows framing the view. The principal bedroom has been given particular attention during the recent refurbishment, with beautifully made bespoke cabinetry bringing real poise to the room.

​

The other two bedrooms have appeal of their own: one has an attractive Art Deco bay window, while the other opens onto a balcony perfect for a morning coffee or a quiet moment with your book.

​

The kitchen is equally well judged, with smart cabinetry, plenty of workspace and a glazed bay with room for two to sit over breakfast. Even here, the view is across rooftops rather than into somebody else’s kitchen.

​

What stays with you is that feeling of being above it all. High on Richmond Hill, with nothing above but sky, there’s light, distance and openness in almost every direction.
