A Rare Edwardian Gem in the Heart of Seven Dials.
Positioned on a sought-after stretch of Addison Road, this beautifully presented four-bedroom Edwardian terraced house is one of just four distinctive red-brick homes benefiting from notably wider plots and higher ceilings than most properties on the street.
Thoughtfully updated while retaining an abundance of original charm, this home offers over 1,670 square feet of elegant, well-proportioned living space. From the moment you enter, you’re greeted by the striking ceiling detail and height in both the entrance hallway and the front living room – a true testament to the craftsmanship of the era. The front reception is a showstopper, with its grand coffered ceiling, marble fireplace, and large south facing sash windows that flood the space with light.
The rear of the property is home to a newly fitted and highly desirable British Standard kitchen with underfloor heating, designed with interior style and heritage in mind. The space features wooden-panelled walls, solid wood countertops, and a statement checkerboard tiled floor – all perfectly in keeping with the home’s period character. The open-plan layout seamlessly connects to the garden, creating an ideal environment for entertaining and everyday family life. There is also helpful access via a side entrance from the garden to the front.
Upstairs, four bedrooms are arranged around a generous landing. The principal suite benefits from a cleverly designed en-suite bathroom with underfloor heating, with striking Claybrook tiles and living brass fixtures, including a rainfall shower and wall-mounted taps. The family bathroom, also has underfloor heating and is equally well-appointed, featuring a luxurious cast-iron roll-top bath and coordinating vintage-inspired fittings – a perfect blend of modern comfort and timeless style.
There is also excellent potential to extend into the loft space, as many neighbouring properties have already done. This will allow for the creation of additional bedrooms, subject to the usual planning permissions, which have been readily granted elsewhere on the road.
An abundance of original features have been retained and are showcased throughout, from fireplaces and ceiling mouldings to restored floorboards and joinery, all contributing to the warm, characterful feel of the home.
