Portobello Road

Thoughtfully designed with a contemporary eye, this two-bedroom duplex for sale is an elegant haven amid colourful surroundings.

Backdropped by colourful Portobello Road, this refined duplex celebrates its heritage bones while bringing modern living to the fore. Its all-black façade contrasts with the neutral tones that await inside, across the first and second floors.

A meticulous living area blends form and function on the first floor, conceived with both entertaining and the everyday in mind. A feature fireplace takes centre stage, flanked by custom-built storage and open shelving. Two large sash windows fill the room with natural light while offering views over Portobello Road. The kitchen sits subtly separated by a thoughtfully appointed breakfast bar. Muted teal cabinetry, integrated appliances and marble-topped worktops characterise the space, illuminated by a further sash window. Also on this floor, a quiet study with a custom-built desk and shelving and shiplap walls in a soft sage hue.

Ascending to the home’s second floor, sleeping quarters unfold. The principal suite enjoys a palette of carefully-curated neutral shades, complimented by wooden floors, while a wall of bespoke wardrobes offers ample storage. Soothing tones wash over the en suite shower room, complete with white tiled rainfall shower and an elegant vanity with a marble splashback. The guest bedroom is similarly considered, with an abundance of natural light and plenty of storage. The family bathroom serves this room, featuring striking fish scale tiles and a rainfall shower.

Crowning the home is a decked roof terrace, backdropped by views across the rooftops of Notting Hill and ready to embrace London’s warmer months. For more intimate occasions, an additional terrace can be accessed from the upper floor landing.
