Soaring arched windows and hardwood flooring bring a refreshing quality to this two-bedroom North Kensington apartment for sale.

At the northernmost end of Portobello Road, an elegant stock brick façade plays host to an outstanding two-bedroom apartment. Set on the first floor overlooking Athlone Gardens and Portobello Road, the space benefits from dramatic volumes and an uplifting atmosphere. Six arched windows draw in daylight and accentuate the high ceilings. Completed with white window shutters, this considered design feature produces a continental feel.

Enter the open-plan kitchen, dining and reception room. Sunlight pours in to illuminate a modern culinary setting with glossy cabinets and white metro tiling. An island delineates the space between cooking and dining areas. Exposed wood flooring provides a warm, organic tone and flows into a considered living area – a panoramic vantage point over the neighbourhood.

The poised palette is consistent throughout. A sense of tranquillity has been crafted within the principal bedroom, featuring pale taupe walls illuminated by a large sash window. One further double bedroom is finished in calming, neutral tones. Completing the home is a bathroom, which enjoys white metro tiles and a bathtub with an integrated tower.
