Powis Gardens

Strolling distance from Portobello Road, Ledbury Road and Westbourne Grove, this two-bedroom apartment for rent is bright and well-connected.

A sought-after Notting Hill location and secluded garden set this lower-ground floor home apart. Freshly painted and functional throughout, there’s an inviting sense of space, light and privacy here.

The entrance is tucked away down a flight of stairs. On the other side of a private front door, a large southwest-facing bay window illuminates an open-plan reception room and kitchen. A considered space finished in blue accents, it offers a sociable configuration for hosting. Finishes are contemporary: think wall-mounted radiators, subway tiles and spotlights, plus a suite of modern appliances including a large range-style cooker and a dishwasher.

The bedrooms continue the pared-back, airy feel, both offering access to coveted outside space. The streamlined principal features fitted wardrobes and double French doors out to the walled garden, while the guest bedroom comes with a walk-in storage area and shelving finished in a teal trim. These green-blue tones flow out to the decking beyond, which can accommodate a table and chairs.

Both bedrooms are served by a recently updated and generously sized bathroom. Crisp metro tiling, fitted storage and a shower-bath are polished and practical, bringing a contemporary edge.
