Princedale Road

A roof terrace with wide-reaching views crowns this one-bedroom townhouse for rent, which offers a contemporary spin on its period framework.

A quintessential brick and stucco-fronted townhouse, this traditional Notting Hill home is designed for modern living. Bright and inviting, its living spaces are well proportioned and enjoy a sense of flow. On the ground floor, a large west-facing sash window floods the double reception room with light. Tiled floors and neutral walls offer a blank canvas backdrop, with multiple alcoves for storage.

French doors lead into the kitchen and breakfast room where glazing encases the back wall and ceiling, creating an uplifting, inside-out effect – and a steady stream of natural light. Open the doors to the courtyard patio – an ideal spot for al fresco dining. Inside, there’s a breakfast bar for informal meals, as well as room to accommodate a dining table.

Capitalising on the home’s period proportions, kitchen cabinets stretch all the way to the ceiling, offering ample storage space. Black mosaic tiles and worksurfaces add to the striking, streamlined feel, with the adjoining utility room and cloakroom further maximising the footprint available.

Found on the first floor, the bedroom suite is a calming, considered space, complete with dual sash windows. Neutral tones throughout ensure a pared-back, relaxed atmosphere. The en suite bathroom is well-appointed, with a separate bathtub and a large walk-in shower. Also found on this floor, a quiet study offers a dedicated area for working from home.

Crowning the house, the generous terrace enjoys a cityscape view over the rooftops of Notting Hill – plus plenty of space for entertaining.
