英国伦敦Sutherland Place
A very special property rarely available on the open market. A lengthy collaboration between the owner and Gianni Botsford Architects has resulted in a bachelor playground designed to indulge and please at every turn. This masterpiece of design and style is more or less traditional in layout but has some quite fabulous contemporary additions and imaginative finishes, notably from Jimmie Martin, Tom Dixon and Abigail Ahern. The full-length drawing room is on the raised ground floor, as one would expect, but to the rear a bold gallery drops down into the kitchen/dining room below, linking the two spaces. Passing the rear roof deck, the surprises continue, and include a fully equipped cinema room. The Bulthaup kitchen (using Gaggenau and Sub Zero appliances) is genius in design, while the low visual impact blends perfectly with the cosy rough brick floors, natural surface finishes and Eames furniture. At the rear, a bank of rotating glass panels provides views of a terraced garden and a lush-green living wall. The brilliant primary bedroom suite on the upper floors, double in height, offers complete sanctuary. A central spiral staircase leads to a mezzanine office and gallery, and from here a bridge takes you to a suntrap roof terrace via an enormous sliding glass panel. Elsewhere are two double bedrooms, a guest bathroom and a utility room with Miele appliances. This early Victorian mid-terraced house lies on the western side of a peaceful residential street close to very popular Westbourne Grove.
