Holland Park

A grand and voluminous five-bedroom duplex that honours its Holland Park postcode with original features and timeless design details.

Moments from one of London’s landmark green spaces, a double-fronted Victorian villa speaks of symmetry and sophistication. Inside, period proportions and considered design details set the scene.

A soaring bay window pours natural light into the main reception room where hardwood flooring is famed by an elegant border. An original fireplace grounds the room while above, intricate cornicing crowns the space. Two further reception rooms each feature whitewashed walls, bay windows and generous dimensions.

An eat-in kitchen pairs wood cabinetry with black granite worktops and splashbacks. This space enjoys stone flooring, an American-style fridge and double doors leading out to a rear balcony. Recalling the materials of the porch at the front of the building, a wrought-iron balustrade frames views of a split-level garden. This peaceful, south-facing retreat combines a planted area and a decked terrace which flows into two patios at the front of the plot.

An inverted plan places five spacious bedrooms on the lower level. The principal bedroom suite provides a perspective on the leafy garden via a large bay window. This room features cooling tones, a bank of fitted wardrobes and a separate dressing area. Stone surfaces wear a green hue in the distinctive en suite bathroom which has a dual vanity and an alcove bathtub. Served by three bathrooms, the calming colour palette flows into four further bedrooms each combining period features with contemporary comforts.
