Ladbroke Gardens

A modern maisonette in a period setting. Considered design decisions and far-reaching views characterise this calming home in Notting Hill.

Finished in London stock bricks with white masonry accents, a traditional façade makes a striking first impression. Entering the apartment on the third floor, stairs ascend to an oasis of serene tones and textures.

Minimalistic cabinetry and integrated appliances make the eat-in kitchen a clean-lined affair. Navy metro tiles create a statement while a wine chiller speaks of evenings spent entertaining. Above, cream cornicing frames the ceiling and contrasts against eggshell walls.

Hardwood flooring transitions to carpet in the spacious principal bedroom. Thoughtful design produces a quality of tranquillity. This space also benefits from a walk-in dressing area with dark bespoke joinery. A marble-wrapped en suite pairs a dual vanity with a freestanding bathtub. One further bedroom enjoys a generous sash window and a pared-back aesthetic. The apartment also benefits from one further bathroom.

An expansive skylight reveals the textures of a brick wall which guides the eye upwards – to the top-floor reception room. Placing form with function, this uplifting light-filled space is an elevated hideaway. Crowned by a sculptural light feature, the living space is backdropped by verdant vistas.

Floor-to-ceiling opens onto a large south-facing roof terrace overlooking Stanley Gardens North, to which the property has access. To the other side of the reception room, glazing folds away, granting access to a decked dining terrace with views over the rooftops of Notting Hill.
