Clanricarde Gardens

Period features meet polished design in this light-filled two-bedroom Notting Hill duplex apartment with high ceilings, intricate finishes and a private patio.

Set behind a stucco-fronted façade on a quiet street just moments from Notting Hill Gate, this duplex on Clanricarde Gardens immediately captivates. From its portico entrance to the elegant interplay of heritage and contemporary design, the home is a masterclass in refined renovation.

Entering to the raised ground floor, the reception room sets the tone: expansive, light-filled and intricately detailed. Natural light floods through a generous bay window, highlighting the ornate ceiling rose, decorative cornicing and warm hardwood floors. An arched antique marble fireplace anchors the space – a traditional centrepiece softened by neutral tones. Beyond sliding glass doors, the kitchen enjoys integrated Miele appliances and modern design. A tall sash window frames a peaceful view over the private patio and neighbouring gardens.

Occupying the entire first floor, the principal bedroom suite is an elevated sanctuary. Carpeted stairs transition to herringbone wood flooring, while a double-height ceiling soars overhead, emphasising the room’s sense of space. Full-height wardrobes flanked by integrated bookshelves create a seamless balance of storage and style. Arched sash windows bookend the space, offering leafy views, while the en suite echoes the refined aesthetic – marbled tiles paired with sleek black accents.

The sense of considered design continues into the guest bedroom suite. A skylight overhead and sliding glass doors onto the private patio infuse the space with natural light, while a vertical radiator and wall of bespoke wardrobes add function and form. The adjoining en suite is wrapped in veined tiles and finished with matte black hardware, including a rainfall shower and towel rail.
