Sunderland Terrace

In Notting Hill’s residential centre, minimalist interior design brings contemporary character to this one-bedroom apartment’s heritage framework.

Sunderland Terrace is one of Notting Hill’s most picturesque streets, lined with well-preserved townhouses and blooming magnolia trees. At the end of the row of terraces, set behind a portico-fronted façade, is a lateral one-bedroom apartment that’s been entirely refurbished with modern living in mind.

Enter an expansive open-plan kitchen and reception room, which is brightly illuminated through dual-aspect fenestration. There’s a serene atmosphere drawn with pale floors and walls, while the immaculate cornicing and stone fireplace surround bring a sophisticated quality to the room. The culinary setting pairs form with function: light cabinets are paired with glossy whitewashed worktops and integrated appliances. It makes fantastic use of the space, complete with an inviting breakfast bar.

The bedroom maintains the home’s minimalist appearance. A sash window draws in soft natural light and built-in cupboards offer an understated storage solution. The bathroom is a stylish affair, wrapped entirely in marble and mosaic tiling.
