Artesian Road

Style and structure ground this six-bedroom townhouse in Notting Hill. Pared-back design and period accents unfurl across five floors of living space and expansive terraces.

A cream-coloured façade with white window pediments makes for a regal welcome to this characterful home. Entering on the ground floor, a vast dual-aspect kitchen and reception room models a neutral palette enlivened by honey-toned wood flooring. An eat-in kitchen is all glossy charcoal cabinetry and chrome accents. This striking space draws together integrated appliances, an American-style fridge freezer and two sinks.

A breakfast bar delineates the room into cooking and relaxing spaces. A large living area is flooded with light from a south-facing Juliet balcony which overlooks the patio below.

Original details elevate the double reception room on the first floor. A dark feature fireplace pops against its elegant white marble surround while ornate cornicing crowns the ceiling. Double doors draw in natural light to create an uplifting feel. With patio views, a formal dining room pairs marble flooring and a feature fireplace with an inlaid stone surround.

Corinthian balustrades and wrought iron railings add period elegance to the split-level decked terrace. From the first-floor reception room, a south-facing terrace leads to the vast upper level, which provides myriad options for al fresco dining and entertaining.
The home’s principal bedroom suite takes the second floor. A pale marble feature fireplace governs over the space which is generously lit by large sash windows. This space features a dressing area and an en suite with a pink-toned dual vanity.

Four further bedrooms pair heritage details and modern interventions. The third-floor suite features a private terrace while all three lower ground floor bedrooms feature direct patio access.
