Gunterstone Road is the largest residential house on the market in West Kensington. Located just four hundred yards from Barons Court tube station, and under half a mile from the famous Queen’s Club tennis court, the home offers over 4,000 sq. ft of flexible accommodation across five floors.
The current owners of this six bedroom, four bathroom property, spent two years fully refurbishing the house, outfitting it with the latest technology. A smart multi-zone thermostat ensures all the rooms are energy efficient and temperature controlled, while the lower ground level has been designed with Lutron lighting and a full sound speaker system that would be great for entertaining.
Designed as a family home, the ground floor was raised and opened during the renovation project to create one big living space that is flooded with natural light from both the front and the back of the house. On this level, there’s a large private terrace that overlooks the two-tiered garden, as well as a separate bathroom.
Downstairs, the entire ground floor has been dedicated to an open plan living and dining area. The space feels inviting thanks to its wall-to-wall windows, high ceilings and neutral colour design. An array of white integrated cabinets provide plenty of room for storage, while the kitchen island offers additional countertop space and a place for families to gather and eat breakfast together in the mornings.
A basement extension one floor down has created room for a number of luxury amenities including a gym, steam room, sauna, wine store and private cinema. Here, there’s a spare bedroom that could be used as a nanny or guest room, as well as separate office for those working flexibly.
Five bedrooms are spread over the top two floors, including the principal bedroom that features a walk-in wardrobe and an en suite bathroom with white marble walls, twin sinks, a shower and a bathtub.
‘No expense was spared in the renovation of this substantial family home,’ says Alex Lambert, Director of Dexters West Kensington.
‘Formerly rented by a movie executive and a Netflix producer, the buyer of Gunterstone Road will benefit not only from its central location but also from its luxurious finishes, fitness and media rooms.’
