Our headliners of London living: a curated edit of the standout homes sold by our team this year.
Across the capital in 2025, architects and designers continued to push the boundaries of contemporary city design. Soaring ceilings met modern interventions; preserved original features found their footing alongside sustainable innovation; and award-winning, boundary-blurring gardens became integral to everyday life.
From a sun-drenched mews home just moments from Hyde Park to an interior-designed vaulted duplex and the serene riverside charm of a Chiswick family home, these are spaces shaped around how people live, gather and grow. Here, in no particular order, we celebrate a curated selection of the properties sold by our team this year.
Upper Addison Gardens, Holland Park W14
The epitome of an urban sanctuary. This five-bedroom Holland Park triplex with communal garden access, a dedicated yoga studio and an infrared sauna oriented towards the treetops has been crafted for calm. Interiors by Jelena Joksimović bring a Balearic sensibility, with pared-back palettes imbuing every room with serenity. Three floors defined by natural light, open spaces and connections with the outdoors.
Cleveland Square, Bayswater W2
A masterclass in modern heritage, this three-bedroom Notting Hill duplex takes Victorian grandeur and turns up the dial. Think four-metre-high ceilings, sculptural detailing and views out towards Cleveland Square’s manicured lawns. Proportions are palatial – from the light-filled living spaces to the large eat-in kitchen, where Corinthian columns add to the sense of opulence and occasion.
Chevening Road, Queen’s Park NW6
A traditional façade gives way to a flourish of imagination at this four-bedroom Queen’s Park home, expertly curated by design luminary Beata Heuman. Vintage brass doors reveal a double reception room, before flowing into the large kitchen – with a sunroom that extends seamlessly to the garden. Bedrooms become studies in colour and materiality; notably, the principal suite with a Masharabiya-inspired bathroom and freestanding tub.
Blenheim Crescent, Notting Hill W11
A study in high-contrast cool, this three-bedroom duplex subverts its traditional red-brick exterior with art-led interiors. Micro-cement floors, sculptural lighting and gallery-worthy pieces elevate a reception room that opens onto a private garden. From a floating fireplace to a jet-black freestanding tub, the minimalist bedrooms are injected with a monochromatic punch. Contemporary wellness is extended out through the courtyard to a wood-wrapped sauna.
Randolph Avenue, Maida Vale W9
Reimagined with architectural flair and sleek technology, this four-bedroom Maida Vale triplex turns Victorian bones into a modern backdrop. A Crittall-wrapped entrance opens into the light-filled social space, where Calacatta stone, sash windows and sculptural lines set a refined rhythm. Bedrooms continue the contemporary polish: quiet sanctuaries with marble-clad en suites, sculptural freestanding baths and spa-like showers.
Highlever Road, North Kensington W10
The traditional red-brick façade of this North Kensington home sits in measured harmony with its neighbours. Inside, Hanson Architects have reconfigured the footprint with precision, emphasising natural light and spatial continuity. A bespoke Bulthaup kitchen anchors the ground floor, opening to the garden through expansive wall-to-wall glazing. Below, the cinema room is curated for family time, complete with integrated climate control, a mirror-backed bar and Bose surround-sound speakers.
Elgin Crescent, Notting Hill W11
Vaulted, light-drenched volumes set the tone at this reimagined Notting Hill duplex, crafted with a host of reclaimed materials by interior designer Tasha Freeman. Double-height ceilings, arched sash windows and exposed brickwork frame the living space, which leads to a kitchen fashioned from repurposed worktops and fossilised limestone. Upstairs, a mezzanine study links to a private roof terrace – with sweeping views across the roofscape. As for the bedroom, minimalism is channelled with pale tones and softly diffused light.
Ladbroke Road, Notting Hill W11
A six-bedroom Notting Hill home where classic elegance is seamlessly woven with sleek modern design. Ornate plasterwork columns and a spacious footprint set a voluminous feel across the open-plan kitchen, reception and dining spaces – ideal for entertaining – which flows out to the courtyard garden in summertime. The principal bedroom suite is considered and calm, complete with a dressing area and marble-wrapped en suite. Upstairs, skylights and a sunrise-facing balcony draw in the natural light.
Britannia Road, Fulham SW6
This four-bedroom Fulham house exudes a serene, Mediterranean-inspired calm, where limewashed walls and smooth stone floors set a gallery-like ambiance. The kitchen is all dark wood, marble surfaces and burnished brass details, flowing seamlessly out to a suntrap terrace. Upstairs, the principal suite opens to a full-width terrace framed by arched columns and manicured topiary, bringing a touch of continental escapism to central London.
“My go-to design-led agency. Domus Nova has sold several of my properties over the years and always achieves the best result possible, with thoughtful marketing and attention to detail.”
David Roberts, client & developer, Britannia Road
Hartington Road, Chiswick W4
Riverfront living and inspiring architecture in the welcoming enclave of Chiswick. In this seven-bedroom family home, creative design comes to the fore by award-winning MWA Architects. Engineered oak floors connect distinct reception spaces, from a formal lounge with smoked mirrored walls to an open-plan kitchen and dining room that flows out to a 260 ft garden and private riverside deck. Back inside, a cantilevered staircase ascends to the principal suite, complete with bespoke walk-in wardrobes and a Statuario marble en suite.
Princes Mews, Bayswater W2
Organic materials, uplifting hues and greenery: this three-bedroom Notting Hill mews surprises at every turn. Designed by Valerie von Bechtolsheim, rough-sawn oak, a navy kitchen island and Richlite countertops set a tactile stage, while swinging bookcase doors conceal a home bar for evenings in. Natural light floods the double-height living room, spotlighting a four-metre olive tree and bespoke joinery. Meanwhile, private Juliet balconies and colourful bathrooms transform the upper floors into an artful retreat.
Fulton Mews, Bayswater W2
Down a quiet cobbled cul-de-sac just steps from Hyde Park, this three-bedroom mews house unfolds with contemporary finesse. The kitchen and dining area resonate with natural appeal, all turquoise marble and warm timber. At the pinnacle of the home, a sun-filled orangery leads to the roof terrace, with unobstructed views of the neighbourhood.
“Thanks to their knowledge and passion for design and architecture, Domus Nova is a wonderful team to guide you through the sales process. It has been a true pleasure working with them.”
Soledad Vaeza, architect and former owner, Fulton Mews
Queen’s Gate Mews, South Kensington SW7
Cobbles underfoot, sunlight spilling through sash windows and a serene atmosphere: this three-bedroom Chelsea mews choreographs city life with quiet precision. Herringbone floors and white walls set the scene for open-plan living. Bedrooms follow suit, with the principal suite and attendant dressing room overlooking the quiet cul-de-sac.
Princedale Road, Notting Hill W11
Forward-thinking sustainability and architectural prowess combine at this four-bedroom Holland Park home. Dinesen timber floors, soaring ceilings and a floating log burner anchor the open-plan kitchen and reception room, while bedrooms feature bespoke storage, marble-topped vanities and a steam room. At the top, a private roof terrace showcases granite counters, a Champagne sink and sweeping West London views, perfect for golden-hour entertaining.
