4 bed flat for sale

Stanlake Villas, London W12

A truly individual four-bedroom Victorian maisonette, offering an exceptional combination of scale, width, period grandeur and private outdoor space that is rarely found in Shepherd’s Bush. Arranged over just two floors, it offers the generous proportions of a country house combined with the convenience of apartment living, with its remarkable breadth creating an unexpected sense of space that gradually unfolds as you move through the property.

Occupying the raised ground and garden levels of an imposing period house, the property is quietly positioned within a peaceful Shepherd’s Bush cul-de-sac.

Approached via its private walled entrance and grand columned Victorian staircase, the property opens into a magnificent entrance hall, where elegant parquet flooring and a contemporary glazed balustrade allow natural light to flow between the two levels. Warm wooden floors continue through the principal rooms, bringing an earthy calm and creating a seamless connection throughout the home.

On the raised ground floor, soaring 11-foot ceilings, ornate crown moulding and dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows showcase the grandeur of the original Victorian architecture. Beautiful folding wooden shutters frame the windows, offering privacy while preserving the home’s period character.

At the heart of the property is a magnificent double reception room, divided by full-height Victorian folding doors. These can be opened to create one expansive entertaining space or closed to provide separate reception and dining rooms for quieter family life.

This is a home made for entertaining. Over the years, many important family occasions and life moments have been celebrated here, including a sit-down luncheon for 65 guests - a wonderful illustration of just how unusually generous and sociable these rooms are.

A long balcony runs alongside the reception room, dining room and kitchen, connecting the principal living spaces with the outdoors and providing an inviting setting for morning coffee, relaxed dining or evening drinks.

The four bedrooms are arranged at garden level, offering peaceful accommodation and remaining naturally cooler during the warmer months. The generous principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite bathroom, while the remaining rooms provide excellent flexibility for children, guests or creative space.

A hidden study provides a clever and discreet workspace without taking over one of the principal rooms, while a beautiful east-facing glazed sunroom creates another distinct living space and leads directly into the private back garden.

A separate laundry room keeps everyday household tasks conveniently away from the main living spaces.

This has been a much-loved and carefully maintained family home and is ready to move into. At the same time, its exceptional proportions and flexible layout offer considerable scope for a new owner to introduce their own style and create a truly special forever home.

Stanlake Villas combines the tranquillity of a residential cul-de-sac with outstanding access to the shops, cafés and restaurants of Shepherd’s Bush. Westfield London, Shepherd’s Bush Market and excellent Underground and Overground connections are all within easy reach. Families are particularly well served by the highly regarded St Stephen’s CofE Primary School nearby.
