Behind its handsome period frontage on one of Fulham’s well-regarded residential streets, this beautifully extended five/six-bedroom house unfolds across five floors, offering 2,385 sq ft of bright, versatile living space. Carefully arranged for family life, it pairs generous proportions with contemporary design, and is further distinguished by a south-facing garden and a private roof terrace above.





The ground floor is given over to an elegant open-plan kitchen, dining and reception room, a broad, sociable space that forms the natural heart of the house. Centred around a large island and lit from above, it has been designed for both everyday family life and larger-scale entertaining. Full-width bi-fold doors draw the eye straight through to the garden, bringing in a strong sense of light and openness and enhancing the connection between inside and out.





A separate reception room lies to the front, offering a more intimate setting away from the main living space, while the lower ground floor provides an additional media/family room or bedroom with a bathroom. This level works particularly well for guests, older children or live-in help, giving the house a flexibility that is increasingly hard to find.





The principal bedroom occupies a commanding position on the first floor and is served by a large ensuite bathroom. The remaining bedrooms are arranged across the upper floors, with a well-balanced mix of family bedrooms, guest accommodation and rooms that could equally serve as studies or dressing rooms depending on need. Bathrooms are smartly finished, and the overall layout gives the house a sense of practicality as well as scale.





Outside, the south-facing rear garden extends directly from the kitchen, making it a natural backdrop to daily life in the main living space. Above, the private roof terrace offers another place to sit in the sun, with open views over the neighbouring rooftops.





Racton Road sits in a particularly convenient part of Fulham, close to the border with Earl’s Court and well placed for the restaurants, cafés and everyday amenities of both areas. The Harwood Arms is nearby, as are a number of well-liked local shops and pubs, while the Lycée Français Charles de Gaulle and other sought-after schools are within easy reach. It is a part of west London that feels well established and with handsome houses, good proportions and a strong sense of neighbourhood life.
