Set in a handsome period townhouse, there’s a 21st-century sensibility to this one-bedroom Notting Hill apartment.

Lansdowne Road has an architectural pedigree stretching back to the 1800s: three-storey stucco buildings, Dutch gables and round-headed windows. Behind its façade, this thoughtfully-refurbished one-bedroom apartment tells a thoroughly contemporary storey.

On the raised ground floor, the home’s high ceilings and bay windows make the most of natural light that fills the reception. Generous proportions impress instantly, but attention has been paid to the smallest details. Whitewashed cornicing, a handsome fireplace and cast iron-style radiators nod to the building’s history.

There are clean-lined bookshelves as well air conditioning, a rare perk for homes in this neighbourhood. Expect form-meets-function design and immaculate finishes throughout. The modern kitchen enjoys sleek, handless cabinetry and direct access to the reception’s dining area. Next door, the understated bedroom has twin wardrobes, recessed alcoves that double as bedside tables and an oversized window facing east. Morning light is especially good in here. An independent storage area is perfect for stowing suitcases, skis and such.

There is direct access to the communal Lansdowne Gardens through the back of the building, where mature ash trees shade afternoon walks and lawns make great picnic areas.
