Keira Knightley's cozy Victorian villa from Black Doves is on the market – the welcoming English property is elegant and spacious
With a deVOL-designed, modern kitchen and preserved Victorian details, the home from the Netflix smash hit series is a coveted listing


It's not often that you get the chance to live in a property seen on millions of screens, but now that the Black Doves home is on the market, someone will have the option.
The Netflix show starring Keira Knightley took over our Netflix feeds last year, so most of us are quite familiar with the stunning Victorian interior designed property that her character owns in the thriller. The listing, however, gives us new insight into the home's history, design, and appeal.
'This magnificent Victorian villa in Crystal Palace truly stands out as a one-of-a-kind property for the area,' says Mark Breffit, senior advisor at Hamptons Private Office. 'Its grand proportions and functional living spaces are complemented by the entertainment areas in the basement, that include a cinema and games room. And the top floor bedrooms offer sweeping views that extend to the Kent countryside – a serene vista but in London.'

These curved, solid wood barstools bring a modern edge to any living space.
These brass pendants are playful in shape and elegant in their metallic finish.
The epitome of elegance, this classic coupe has a slim stem that contrasts the exaggerated, wide cup.
He continues, 'Located in South London’s answer to Notting Hill – Crystal Palace offers a more relaxed vibe – moments from Crystal Palace triangle which is populated by independent cafes and restaurants - vintage shops, and antique stores a plenty. Its proximity to Dulwich and its renowned schools adds significant appeal for families.' The unassuming facade gives way to 6 bedrooms, 5 bedrooms, and a sprawling 5,911 square feet of space.
Rich wood, parquet floors add a natural feel to the grey-painted hallway, while a grey stair runner and hanging mirrors incorporate some visual interest to the area.
The living room, meanwhile, includes some more pops of color via throw pillows and blankets, adding contrast to the grey sofa and ottoman. High ceilings and large-scale windows make the room feel light and area.
Twin, white bookshelves frame a stone fireplace, creating a cozy yet refined feel in the living area. We love the inclusion of pattern, like the floral painting hanging above the fireplace, as well as the softness of the cream rug and cushiony ottoman.

The kitchen is as luxe and modern as they come. Designed by deVOL, it features a Silestone worktop, Fisher & Paykel French door fridge, dishwasher drawers, and wine fridge, along with a 120cm Smeg range cooker. A black and white island is anchored by wood bar stools, while gold cabinet handles and pendant lights elevate the room. Glass cabinets are both stylish and easily accessible, while the parquet wood floors make another appearance, giving the kitchen a modern rustic feel.
Further seating is available thanks to the kitchen's open-concept plan, perfect for hosting or for big families. The wood and stone combination appears yet again with a sleek, grey table and natural chairs.
A grey-painted, glass dresser houses trinkets and serving ware, while abstract art on the wall is the perfect infusion of color into the otherwise neutral space.
The bedroom maintains a simple, minimalist look, with cream carpeting, a wood dresser, and a simple, black bedframe.
Finally, the bathroom features a stunning, freestanding tub on a mosaiced floor, while grey tiles cover half the wall.
The Black Doves house is listed with Hamptons.
