House London

Description

A striking feat of design, this seven-bedroom house in Blythe Road is a one-of-a-kind creation by architect Alex Michaelis, co-founder of Michaelis Boyd. Inspired by Le Corbusier principals, its curvaceous form responds to its surroundings, peeling softly away from neighbouring buildings. Built in 2015, the home balances ingenious architecture with playful family living, featuring a staircase slide, a fireman's pole and year-round heated outdoor pool. Vast communal areas contrast with intimate and private rooms, with the two cylindrical sleeping quarters connected by a bridge above the expansive ground floor. At its heart, a light-filled kitchen and dining room spans an entire wall of banquet seating and a five-metre Bulthaup island, equipped with professional-grade Electrolux appliances. ...

Adjacent, a calming reception room with a wood burner overlooks the courtyard garden and pool, while a hidden home office offers privacy. Upstairs, natural light and soft curves define the spaces. The principal suite features a rare marble-carved bathtub, while additional bedrooms and family bathrooms are finished in a minimalist palette of plaster walls and wide plank Dinesen floors. Roof terraces crown each turret, offering private outdoor retreats. Set behind electronic gates and framed by mature trees, this architectural masterpiece is a hidden oasis, concealed from view from the road Plus
