This stunning residential property in Dalston is the result of 32-year-old architect Paresh Chandegra’s experimentation with what he described as a total “blank canvas”. When he purchased the property on Buckingham Road it was a derelict house in a state of disrepair – completely masked by overgrown vegetation, but you certainly wouldn’t guess that now. After just six and a half months of work, nothing but the original front and neighbouring wall remain in this property, that lies in the heart of the achingly trendy Dalston.
A gorgeous amalgamation of exposed brick, pristine glass walls and industrial style steel stairways, this is the perfect modern pad. With polished concrete flooring throughout the ground floor (and under-floor heating), it’s ideal for entertaining large groups or intimate evenings alike. The four bedroom three bathroom property features a Sonus music system, Artcoustic sound bar and sub, and is fully secured with CCTV and integrated alarm.
Our favourite feature? It would have to be the cantilevered roof extension allowing all three sides of the glass to open up to reveal an open-air dining area giving the property a truly inside-outside feel combining effortlessly with the beautifully landscaped garden.
After years of working for other architectural firms, Chandegra now works on creating his own one off properties – definitely a name to watch.
