Flat to rent in Mountgrove Road, London N5

Designed by award winning internationally acclaimed 6a architects.

This wonderful two bedroom, two bathroom apartment, with private terrace, responds to the eccentric shape of the plot, allowing height and orientation of rooms to vary for privacy, sunlight and views.

The Interior has been lime washed with exposed beams and columns defining the living spaces, exposed concrete frame and ceilings, block-work gently visible through lime washed walls, surface mounted electrics, to give a very honest, straightforward simple feel.

Floors are Douglas Fir Ply and encaustic tile in kitchens and bathrooms. Joinery is the same Douglas fir ply, but treated with a grey oil. Walls are variously exposed concrete or lime washed block-work, offset with rough, uneven, materials with high end, luxurious detailing including, bespoke cast brass door handles and hand rails, triple glazed windows and stylish bathroom fittings.

Leading from the living space is the functional fully fitted kitchen, wth zinc counters, brass taps, Smeg range cooker, Whirlpool washer/dryer, Hotpoint dishwasher, Fisher & Paykel and stainless steel fridge.

The kitchen, bathrooms are all lit with simple bullet or peg lights and bedrooms and living rooms are fitted with 5amp sockets hidden in the floors which are connected to a dimmer switch, which lets occupants use lamps that are then controlled together from the switch.

Outdoor spaces:

Fab private terrace from master bedroom with planters and lighting.

Bathrooms:

Encaustic tile floors, Laufen sanitary ware, Kaldewei bath, stainless steel mirrored cabinets, bespoke copper pipe heated towel rails.

Heating is zoned underfloor (water, not electric) and very cheap to run. Sensors in each room mean that temperature can be very specifically controlled room by room.

The building is extremely thermally efficient - We understand air tightness rating was around 94%, making this close to Passive House standard. This makes it very cheap and environmentally friendly to heat, and lovely and cool in the summer and retain heat excellently in winter.
