A design-led duplex reimagined, this four-bedroom Notting Hill home for rent balances character with contemporary creativity.

Tucked into the upper floors of a classic Notting Hill townhouse, this four-bedroom duplex pays quiet respect to its period past. Reimagined by an international historical preservation architect, it’s a home that considers every detail – from the materials underfoot to the light overhead.

An inverted layout brings the living spaces skyward. On the top floor, a bright and effortless atmosphere is conjured with natural light cascading through brand-new sash windows, glass doors and skylights. At one end, the kitchen is defined by its U-shaped design – a space that feels at once distinct and completely connected. Bespoke cabinetry is punctuated by custom natural wood carpentry, while a marble-topped island pairs with a Falcon range cooker and Liebherr wine fridge. In the living area, a wall of custom floor-to-ceiling glazing allows the indoors to spill out with ease. From the south-west facing balcony, enjoy evening aperitifs backdropped by treetop views.

Descend a bespoke staircase to the lower level, where three double bedrooms bring calm and considered design. The principal suite leans soft and sophisticated, with blush-toned walls, a bank of streamlined wardrobes and twin arching sash windows. Behind a sliding door, the en suite is finished in Italian marble and fitted with a rainfall shower. Two further bedrooms are similarly curated, with warm tones and design-forward finishes, while a family bathroom, fitted with boutique tiles from Spain, serves both with a deep tub. A fourth double bedroom sits upstairs – a flexible space to rest, work or train.

Every aspect of the infrastructure has been upgraded for comfort – underfloor heating, integrated LED accent lighting, smart thermostat controls and sockets with USB-C.
