Gayton Road, Hampstead, NW3 1TU

When I say stylish, beautiful, bright and well proportioned, I’m not just talking about you as the purchaser; I am also talking about this three double-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment with two south-east facing terraces overlooking London. Set over the most secure and desirable floors (First, Second and Third), this beautifully designed home provides a light and quiet sanctuary from the madness of London. Waking up to Sunshine pouring into your master bedroom, then having breakfast in the sun on your terrace or large dining table, you become energised for the day ahead. Upon your return, you again are surrounded by light in your living room, allowing you to unwind in the sun’s warm glow. Newly refurbished by the current owners, who desired to maximise light and family interactions through dining together, this wonderful home needs to be seen.

Gayton Road in Hampstead is perfectly located between Hampstead Heath (0.2 miles), Hampstead High Street (0.1 miles) and Hampstead Underground Station (0.2 miles (Northern Line)). Named after the village of Gayton in Norfolk, it is in the heart of Hampstead Village, personifying the perfect mix of city and country that is the essence of Hampstead. Gayton means Goat settlement, and nowhere has more G.O.A.T.s (Greatest of All Time) in residence than Hampstead. Current neighbours include lookalikes Harry Styles and Ricky Gervais, Tim Burton, Rowan Atkinson and many Arsenal Players (Yes, we are winning the league). Former G.O.A.T.s include Elizabeth Taylor, Daenerys mother of Dragons, George Orwell, Sigmund Freud and HG Wells, whose War of the Worlds book was inspired by watching two people fighting for the last parking space on the school run.

Living here, your lazy Sundays may include breakfast at The Coffee Cup and wild swimming in the ponds, followed by a walk past lakes and woods across the Heath to the Spaniards Inn for lunch. If you’re working from home, you may take a break and meet a friend at Ginger and White on picturesque Perrin’s Court, or grab one of Mani’s famous chicken wraps. Then you might make eye contact with someone and spend the next hour trying to remember where you met them until it dawns on you that they are one of the world’s biggest film stars (it happens more than you think here).
