Chiswick, W6, £6.95 million 

Unlike the neighbouring St Mary’s Church, which was converted into luxury flats in 1984, Victorian The Vicarage has remained a fully detached family home situated on the corner of Stamford Brook Road and Flanchford Road. Dating back to 1886, the house is of a Gothic style, boasting eight bedrooms and four reception rooms over its four floors and 7,000sq ft of space.

Outside, the property benefits from a wraparound garden, as well as off-street parking for four cars, and buyers might be intrigued by the 2,500sq ft lower-ground floor—currently undergoing renovation, it offers purchasers a semi-blank canvas to create their ideal London home.

London Fields, E8, £3.75 million

Remodelled by RIBA award-winning architect Marcus Lee and once featured in Vogue, this mews house on Navarino Grove near London Fields offers a rare gated plot, off-street parking, generous outdoor space, 2,500sq ft of interior space and five bedrooms. Inspired by the open-plan living of midcentury Californian Case Study houses, the house is as ‘aesthetically striking as it is functional,’ say agents.
