Light-filled Modern Kitchen Camden
Tucked away in the picturesque surroundings of Camden, this beautifully restored home tells a story of timeless elegance and thoughtful design. Every space has been lovingly reimagined, from a luminous open-plan kitchen to a bespoke fireplace feature, a tranquil reading nook, and a refined laundry. Each room works in harmony to honour the home’s heritage while embracing the needs of modern family life.
At the heart of the home lies the kitchen, a bright and welcoming space that perfectly balances form and function. High ceilings, punctuated by a central skylight, flood the room with natural light, enhancing the crisp tones of the Dulux Lexicon Quarter shaker cabinetry. A tailored bulkhead ensures a seamless connection to the cathedral ceiling, adding architectural depth without disrupting the flow.
The cabinetry is elevated with brushed nickel Zanda Mayfair hardware, with elegant knobs on the upper cabinets and sleek pull handles below. On one wall, mesh cabinet doors introduce subtle texture and a sense of heritage. Caesarstone Alpine Mist is used across the island, rear benchtop, and splashback to create a continuous and calming visual flow.
At the island, style meets practicality. A Phoenix Cromford mixer tap in brushed nickel sits above a double 1901 Butler sink, while an integrated Smeg dishwasher and microwave enhance functionality without compromising the aesthetic. Opposite the island, a Smeg oven is complemented by a matching brushed nickel pot filler, framed by a custom range hood that blends seamlessly into the surrounding cabinetry.
This kitchen is designed to support the natural rhythm of daily life, providing space to gather, cook, and connect. Whether it’s casual midweek meals or weekend baking with the family, the layout adapts beautifully to every occasion.

Beyond the kitchen, the story continues. A bespoke fireplace built into shaker cabinetry in Dulux Lexicon Quarter adds a focal point to the living area. Mesh cabinet doors tie in with the kitchen detailing, while the fireplace itself offers a subtle nod to the home’s heritage with a refined, timeless look.
To the side of the home, a sun-drenched window created the perfect opportunity for a dedicated reading nook. Here, surano doors from Polytec in Natural Oak Ravine bring warmth and texture to the space, making it an inviting corner for quiet moments and relaxed afternoons.
This thoughtful attention to flow carries into the laundry. A Clarke Prism sink is positioned beneath a large window, again drawing in natural light. The benchtop is finished in YDL Stone Nuvola Snow, complemented by soft tiling splashback and LG appliances that bring both function and finesse.
In the bathrooms, the elegance continues. Custom vanities in Dulux Milton Moon at half strength are topped with the same Nuvola Snow stone, maintaining a consistent palette throughout. Twin Timberline feather basins are paired with Phoenix Cromford wall-mounted taps in brushed nickel, completing the space with understated luxury.
This home now breathes with light, character, and calm sophistication. Each space is thoughtfully connected, rooted in tradition but ready for modern living. It is no longer just a house, but a true family sanctuary that reflects both beauty and purpose.
