Ladbroke Grove W11

Located in an iconic post-war block on Ladbroke Grove, this two-bedroom home is a masterstroke of property renovation and inspiring interior design.

The penthouse apartment with its far-reaching west London views was bought by its owners, De Rosee Sa. The result of their architectural reimagining is a superb lateral home measuring more than 1,100 sq ft. Elegant throughout, design touches include herringbone wood floors, vintage-style furniture and an enchanting colour palette of soft neutrals and smokey blues. Rather than designing a home with shock value or flamboyance, De Rosee Sa has created a property to be lived in, offering versatility and sophistication that feels truly special.

At its centre is a vast, open-plan reception that occupies half the property. Upon entrance, swathes of sunlight impress at once, courtesy of a 36ft wall of glass windows. Outside, manicured boxed shrubs and flora and a balcony is a quiet setting for summertime entertaining.

The master bedroom suite is beautifully laid out with grand double doors leading to an en suite with inset limestone bath, separate walk-in shower and limestone floors. The second bedroom is stylish and bright, thanks to new skylights and a second decked balcony on the other side of the home. There is also a separate shower room. Completing this masterpiece is access to both Hanover and Ladbroke Square communal gardens.
