Bridstow Place

Set back from the thrum of Notting Hill, this two-bedroom cottage for sale transports far from its city setting.

Transformed in the early 1840s from hamlet to metropolitan neighbourhood, Bridstow Place carries its quaint origins through to the 21st century. Characterised by a mews-style aesthetic and an archway of leafy trees, its setting savours a sense of peace plus connectivity to Notting Hill.

A subtle pink hue warms the characterful brick exterior, where a cast-iron gate opens to the patio garden. Paying homage to traditional English design, bucolic colours dress the dining and reception room. Wooden floors span the space; a convivial setting with a carved stone fireplace as its focal point. Light filters in from the south-east and west, uplifting the home’s period bones. Through an archway, the kitchen continues a neutral palette of tones. Finishes here are considered, from streamlined surfaces to integrated appliances. For views out to the front patio garden, there’s a picture window.

Upstairs, two bedrooms are finished with thoughtful design. In the principal, pastel tones and cherry red details curate a vibrant backdrop. Bespoke storage frames a cushioned window seat – a quiet spot to observe the street below. The second bedroom features a convenient built-in desk, plus access to a private terrace. Both bedrooms are served by a family bathroom featuring a bathtub and overhead shower.
