Park Home Review: Tingdene Kensington

7bbe508c-dd51-4d73-aecd-1668f64cf6ea

The Kensington's large, arched Georgian-pane windows, separate lounge, study, loft space and marriage of traditional and modern styling create an imposing home inside and out.

Mustards, greys and pinks, Scandinavian-influenced styling and fresh clean lines combine to create a park home of immense style in the Kensington.

The 45 ft x 20 ft Kensington has generous proportions in all areas, with a spacious lounge, a lovely dining area, a large kitchen and a study. It has two double bedrooms. The master bedroom has a generous walk-in wardrobe and en suite bathroom. In addition, there is a separate shower room.

This home has a high-pitched roofline with the advantage of loft space.

Georgian bar, arch-frame windows and cream rendered exterior distinguish the Kensington; it has a distinctively high-class, almost regally sophisticated image.

Inside, the sophisticated style continues, and mixes well with practicality. There's a hallway, with a seat on which to perch to take off or put on boots or shoes, plus a cabinet for coats, with drawers beneath for shoes.

Lounge

Tingdene Kensington lounge

The large Georgian-paned arched windows that make the exterior of the Kensington look so majestic also create a magnificent lounge look. They reach almost to the ceiling. The lower sectors of these windows have two opening doors.

Cool grey upholsters the seating, with zesty lemon-mustard accent colours in the cushions and touches of pink in the curtains create a modern look which mixes easily with the traditional style of the windows. A white fireplace houses a log-burner-style stove.

A wide aperture leads to the dining area and then on into the kitchen; the lounge is, thus, quite separate from the kitchen-dining function of the home.

Kitchen

Plain, pure white characterises the kitchen. White gloss cabinet doors, white gloss horizontally-aligned tiles along the window wall and under the top cabinets look crisp and ultra-modern.

Grey stone-effect work surfaces stretch along in an L-shape – there is more than enough space for culinary creativity. A four-burner hob with an extractor hood, an eye-level oven and a large roof window are features of this kitchen. The amount of storage space is vast.

Main bedroom

Cabinets run along the whole wall width above the bed; they're plain in style, in two shades of grey – the doors are pale and the cabinet woodwork is slightly darker. Bedside cabinets are in the same style.

A walk-through wardrobe suite adjoins the main bedroom, with copious quantities of shelving, open hanging areas and drawers. A large rug sits on top of wood-effect flooring that runs throughout the Kensington.

The en suite bathroom features a large roll-top bath with traditional feet, as well as a corner shower. Here again, traditional styling mixes with modern looks; the wash basin and its cabinet are plain in style, with long, vertical handles. White, horizontally-aligned bevelled tiles stretch from floor to ceiling on all walls

Second bedroom

In the second bedroom there is a floor-to-ceiling window letting plenty of light. The furniture style is rather traditional and includes a dresser-style style dressing table. Natural wood flooring and a scatter rug melds modernity with classic style.
