The ‘looking glass’ house that’s deceptively small on the outside but huge on the inside with a secret library and cinema room

We all know what it’s like to wander down London’s most fancy streets, peer into the windows of grand houses and wonder what they’re like inside.

One West London property will certainly keep you guessing – a rather modest exterior hides a chic, striking and spacious home within with surprises round every corner.

Completed just five weeks ago, Caspian House on Barrowgate Road in Chiswick is a new build home and a labour of love from architect Kristian Rapallini.

Although this unique home has been designed to blend seamlessly into the streetscape, the outside of the property disguises four levels of floor-to-ceiling glass windows and a two-tiered landscaped garden at the rear.

This unique home is up for grabs with Dexters Chiswick for £4.95 million.

The property offers six bedrooms, six bathrooms and an outdoor terrace on every level. One of its most impressive spaces is the lower ground floor that features a superb cinema room, bespoke kitchen and a dining area that is accessed via a vaulted library.

Upstairs, each trendy bedroom has an en suite bathroom and integrated wardrobes. There is also a south-facing balcony and a bathroom with a Lusso stone bath and walk-in shower.

There are surprises round every corner in this West London house

If these features weren’t enough, this surprising home is a stone’s throw away from Chiswick High Road and Chiswick House and Gardens.

It is also a 10 minute walk away from Turnham Green and Chiswick Park underground stations.

The garden is sure to catch potential buyers by surprise

John Williams, Director of Dexters Chiswick, said: “Barrowgate is a uniquely modern, large and stylish home in one of London’s most popular boroughs.

“The house now lies in a conservation area, so it couldn’t be built today. Whoever buys it will benefit from living in an unrepeatable one-off.”

Kristian Rapallini, Director of Trace Architects, said: “We wanted to create a unique property with materials that would still match the character of the street.

“At the back of the house, we had the freedom to be a little more expressive and as the garden was south-facing.”
