***VIDEO LINK*** A Perfectly Formed Flat That Feels Grand, Classic Yet Modern, Quiet But Close To Everything.
It’s what happens when you mix Victorian architecture, a clever layout and a dash of dark blue. It feels like you’ve discovered a secret, right in the heart of leafy W12.
Set on the first floor of a striking white stuccoed Victorian townhouse, the building has a classic elegance you’d expect to see in Chelsea or South Kensington - not your every day Shepherds Bush. Its historic style reflects the sophistication and prestige that made this a highly desirable address at the time.
Two-bedroom flats in ultra-convenient yet quiet leafy streets are rarely available at this price point. This one has been in the same family for twenty years — first as a home for sharing siblings, then a profitable rental, and most recently a pied-à-terre for retired parents.
Just a few minutes from the tube, it boasts high ceilings, fantastic natural light, generous storage, and a clever layout. With a share of freehold, it’s the perfect city pad to make the most of London living, at a smart price.
The ceilings are high, the sash windows are tall, and natural light lifts the whole space - giving it a quiet sense of grandeur that’s rare at this price point. Even the hallway’s been updated with deep Claydon Blue walls (think Claydon Hall) - a classic touch that ties in with the flat’s quiet sense of timeless style.
In time, some cosmetic updates could give it a fresh lift, but it’s a space that works beautifully, with all the essentials in place, ready for you to move in and enjoy. It’s worth noting that this flat is a Share of Freehold, and external decoration for the entire Freehold is currently underway.
It’s compact but incredibly well planned - making it a great fit whether you’re living solo, sharing with a flatmate or even juggling a bit of both when first starting out.
The bedrooms are well separated and evenly sized doubles, with built-in storage tucked smartly between them. It’s the kind of layout that makes everyday life feel easier - and means no one has to draw the short straw. Even better, should you want to create one extra-large bedroom with office space or a dressing area, the built-in storage, which divides the rooms, can be easily removed with minor decoration afterwards.
The living area and kitchen sit together in one neat, practical space - complete with integrated appliances, modern fitted units and a dedicated laundry cupboard. It’s simple, functional and smart.
Stanlake Road is one of Shepherd’s Bush’s prettiest streets - quiet, tree-lined and tucked just away from the buzz of Uxbridge Road. You’re only minutes from the tube, Westfield, cafés and local green spaces, yet the leafy setting feels calm and very grown-up.
A clever, character-filled flat that’s beautifully positioned and brilliantly planned - ideal for solo buyers or sharers who want timeless looks, modern ease and a quiet yet central location.
The last photo is the neighbour but the current exterior decoration will be very similar. Black and White Victorian Tiles, Black cast iron gate and ground floor window sill cast iron decor. Both the internal and external decoration is underway.
