full description A Perfect Project - Requiring complete modernisation throughout, a unique, quirky and vast, 3/4 bedroom apartment of 1658 sq ft set on the top 2 floors of a period turn of the century house.

The apartment unusually is entered on the actual ground floor of the building off a communal hallway serving 2 flats.

The property requires comprehensive modernisation throughout and is therefore suited to an experience buyer wishing to take on a total project with the potential to create a very comfortable and spacious home to their own design and specification.

The ground floor hallway is a perfect space for decanting coats and shoes before taking the stairs to the upper floors. There is also the additional benefit of a cellar area, accessed via a door and narrow staircase beneath the stairs. As it has low head height and uninhabitable, its currently ideal for storage and unsuitable for conversion due to it being below the separate demise of the ground floor flat.

The remainder of the flat has a split level arrangement over the entire first and second floors of the house and is currently arranged with the reception room and inter-communicting dining room/ bedroom 4, plus a separate kitchen-breakfast room along with a separate WC across the first floor level. The further 3 bedrooms and bathroom are set on the second (top) floor.

The property has been in the same family ownership for over 50 years and was the home of the late post war contemporary artist Douglas Druce.

The flat may appeal to an artist or student of the arts, as visiting the apartment is an akin to walking into a living museum or onto a set design. Many of the walls are still covered in large murals painted by the late owner.

There are numerous props and pillars and paintings set in the classical era showing ancient Egyptian scenes.

Glenmore Road is excellently located in the very heart of Belsize Park, near the shopping hubs of Haverstock Hill and the popular villages of Belsize and Hampstead.

The nearest Underground station is Belsize Park, on the Northern Line and only several stops to London Euston mainline station and Kings Cross and St. Pancras Eurostar. Swiss Cottage and the Finchley Road with their multiple main shopping and transport facilities, Jubilee and Metropolitan line underground stations are also within an easy 15 minute walk.

Additionally there are a variety of bus links close by and of course places to relax on Hampstead Heath and Primrose Hill, haven's of green space and fresh air.
