Fanthorpe Street

This well-designed house keeps things light, with fresh tones, large windows, and sleek furnishings. The living room peppers its classic, townhouse aesthetic with a modernist-meets-mod blend, expertly combining clean lines with retro curves and simple contrasts with pops of colours. There's also a rather fabulous piano, if anyone's up for tinkling on the ivories. Plus, whether it's work or play, we've got you covered with superfast full fibre broadband. So be it multiple video calls or an indulgent Netflix binge — or both simultaneously — you'll be all set. The kitchen is bathed in light thanks to retractable glass doors, which open onto a swish terrace garden, complete with sun loungers and hot pink coffee table (what else?). Weather not playing ball? There's always the glossy dining table with its fluid, white chairs, where you can enjoy a sheltered but semi-alfresco meal. The four bedrooms unite a soft palette and lightwood floors, along with two accompanying study spaces — ideal for remote working. And we're no less enamoured with the bathrooms, with their cool, whitewashed interiors and slick, contemporary fittings.

We love...

An extra (and in no way undersized) TV and comfy corner sofa furnish the perfect snug room. We'd recommend ensconcing yourself here with a cup of tea and a stash of biscuits. Otherwise, it's got to be the little design flourishes dotted around — be it the smattering of swish artwork featuring abstract shapes and vibrant colours, or the enjoyable whiteboard wall in the bedroom, displaying doodles galore.
