Talbot Road W2

Modern interventions enliven the period framework of this elegant three-bedroom maisonette in Notting Hill.

On a handsome street a short walk from Portobello Market, a heritage home wears pristine finishes. White masonry pops against its latte-toned exterior. Flanked by stone columns, a raised ground floor entrance leads into a stylish hallway.

Industrial glass doors grant access to the open-plan kitchen, dining and reception room. Light is channelled through the space, playing off white walls to produce a rejuvenating atmosphere.

A dark fireplace provides contrast and a convivial focal point. Above, a sculptural light feature crowns the living space. Ted Todd parquet flooring sweeps through the dining area and into the kitchen. A wall of steel-framed glazing stretches over the space. Sunlight beams in, illuminating Italian marble worktops, deVOL brassware and integrated Miele appliances. Beyond, steps lead down from a balcony to a leafy retreat.

Bedrooms are arranged across the lower level. A sense of seclusion has been created within the principal bedroom suite. A refined palette grounds the space while elegant cornicing nods to the history of the home. South-facing French doors invite natural light in and open onto a private patio.

A wall of bespoke joinery conceals the entrance to the room’s en suite bathroom. This space draws together a dual vanity and bathtub with striking marble finishes.

Two further bedrooms harness neutral tones and natural light to create tranquil sleeping spaces. They are served by a bathroom pairing a generous walk-in shower with Waterworks brassware. On the ground floor, a rear-facing office provides a space for work or relaxation.
