Lavish and Luxe, by Veeve

With the stylish boutiques of the Fulham Road and the King’s Road as near neighbours, it’s important to look the part in this highly sought-after area of west London. Thankfully, this vivacious and vogueish five-bedroom home makes the boldest of statements. Delivering a peerless example of modern-day family living with its intelligent application of smart technology and lavish styling, it’s a totem to modern design. Which seems appropriate, given its prime Chelsea location close to the effortlessly stylish Brompton Cross, King’s Road and Sloane Square...

Its many luxuriant charms immediately make themselves known in the breathtaking formal reception space that offers a harmonious blend of texture and colour. Swathes of natural light from a wall of floor-to-ceiling patio doors gently beckon you inside the lustrous conservatory. The starry-eyed space plays host to a majestic formal dining area where an opulent shard-effect chandelier hangs above.

Ardent aficionado of al-fresco dining? Here, sweeping patio doors open to the sumptuous garden terrace allowing you to instantly be at one with the dining area. Imaginatively styled with infusions of wood and brick detail, the terrace is an idyllic spot to relax over a decadent barbecue as you catch the last of the late evening sun.

Nimble kitchen island, dainty home library, beguiling breakfast bar? The multi-functional focal point of the lavish contemporary kitchen is all this and more, while exuberant pendant lights offer another nod towards this home’s unrelenting visual allure. It’s an aesthetic that could be taken straight from a classic Fellini film. So much so, it’s fitting a poster for La Dolce Vita is amongst the cinematic artwork in the home cinema room. The sweet life is certainly evident here with its inviting sofas and atmospheric mood lighting, perfect for romantic film nights. Overdone it on the popcorn? The odd spot of overindulgence shouldn’t be too much of an issue, provided you put time aside to work up a sweat in the home gym and sauna, equipped with a treadmill and a wealth of workout equipment.

Roomy and restful, all five bedrooms boast an atmosphere of composed serenity with their plush bedding and soulful lighting, while a blend of glamorous marble materiality and flawless contemporary chic brings an air of opulence to the en-suite bathrooms. The sheer sense of space and confident style ethos isn’t confined to the sleeping quarters upstairs. Privacy is guaranteed in the king-sized bedroom of the subterranean basement; a self-contained studio that comes with its own kitchen and munificent en-suite bathroom.

Footsteps from the Fulham Road, here you’ll be instantly captivated by a multitude of charms in a neighbourhood that abounds with award-winning restaurants, high-end boutiques and enthralling contemporary art galleries.

The home gym and sauna where you can seize the day with an intense workout (leaving you guilt-free when that sunset cocktail comes calling in the private garden).
