Walworth Terrace - £310,000+Peter Kenny of Gunne Residential is quoting a guide price of £310,000-plus for 3 Walworth Terrace, a terraced house of 1,200 sq ft that has been totally remodelled by its architect owners. It goes to auction on June 27th. As in many architects' homes, white open spaces, expanses of glass and stainless-steel accessories play a key role in the overall scheme. The front door opens to reveal a dazzling polished black limestone floor that runs through two open plan reception rooms with a partial dividing wall that houses a fireplace facing the rear reception room. Beyond this is the kitchen breakfastroom, a bright, warm room with a full wall of sliding glass doors leading to the patio garden. The working part of the kitchen has Shaker-style units and a stainless-steel integrated cooker and hob.

The bathroom is also at this level and it too has a sleek contemporary feel with marine ply units, a raised shower with glass mosaic tiles and a round stainless-steel sink in a marble surround.

Upstairs, both bedrooms are comfortable doubles. One overlooks the back patio and has French doors opening on to a narrow planter balcony.

The main bedroom looks out over the street and has an open fireplace with a black limestone hearth.
