2 bedrooms Flat in Fox Hill, London SE19
Located in an impeccably maintained 1960s block in Crystal Palace is this peaceful two-bedroom apartment. It has been carefully renovated in recent years, maintaining the original features that characterise the space while adding sensitive contemporary touches. Positioned on the second floor of the building, it has wonderful elevated views and a leafy outlook. The apartment has access to a large communal garden and a private garage. Highland Lodge was built in the 1960s for the executives of Royal Dutch Shell. It has been carefully maintained in the years since and retains both the decorative touches and atmosphere of the era, with enormous windows and slatted timber walls in the communal stairwell. It has a traditional brick façade punctuated by original windows; entrance to the building is via a secure intercom system. Entrance to Highland Lodge is to a bright communal lobby and stairwell. The apartment-s front door opens to a hallway with original parquet flooring that has been beautifully restored. The parquet extends underfoot throughout the majority of the home, leading from the hall to the living room and kitchen. Dual aspect, the space is wonderfully light and open. An expansive window in the living area frames Scots pine trees in the communal garden below; extending almost the entirety of the wall, its south-facing position allows beautiful views over the sunset. Built-in open shelving runs along the lower half of the adjacent wall, providing storage space. A bespoke Ultima kitchen lies on the left-hand side of the plan, demarcated from the living area by a change in flooring and a subtle shift to a more contemporary aesthetic. Grey-green lift-up cabinetry extends along both walls, running above and below Silestone worktops with a glass splashback behind. There are integrated appliances by Neff, including an oven, gas hob, microwave and dishwasher, plus an integrated fridge freezer by Liebherr. A large window at one end casts light over the space. An extremely deep built-in cupboard is positioned to one side of the central hallway, which leads to two bedrooms at the rear of the plan via a family bathroom. The bedrooms lie opposite one another; both are peaceful, bright spaces, with equally green and leafy outlooks. Fan lights above the doorways welcome further light in. Both bedrooms have built-in cupboards, deep enough for a desk space to be created within if desired. The bathroom has tiled walls and floors by Porcelonsa, with touch screen-controlled underfloor heating. The bath and shower, by Bette and Hansgrohe, respectively, are powered by a remote water pump; there is also a built-in bespoke mirrored storage unit and an additional heated mirror above the sink. The apartment has been completely rewired and replumbed. The apartment has sole access to a shared attic space, which extends across the entirety of the plan. There is additional private storage space in the communal hallway, which can easily fit two bikes and a pram. There is also a private garage to the rear of the building, beyond the garden. It has space for one car and can be rented out. A large communal garden wraps around the building on two sides. Wonderfully private and shielded from the street, the generous lawned area is dotted with mature trees, including a magnificent Bhutan pine. These spaces are perfect for outdoor dining and relaxing afternoons.
