Chesterton Road

Playful palettes and period details intermingle in this four-bedroom property for rent in North Kensington.

Beyond a bright yellow door, a playful palette harmonizes with period features to create a stylish family home.

Wood flooring flows into the reception room, where yellow architrave subtly zones a colourfully styled seating space. The property’s period features – detailed cornicing, ceiling roses, and a marble fireplace surround – establish an elegant framework for modern furnishings. The bay window’s white wooden shutters create an intimate feel, producing a sense of privacy. Glass double doors illuminate a study opposite, and open out to a small sun trap – a decked terrace.

Down a shelved-wall staircase, the home’s pièce de résistance – an open-plan kitchen and dining room. Marble-topped navy cabinetry frames a Smeg oven, while canary-coloured lamps hang over a central island. Glazed bi-folding doors flood the space with light and create cohesion with an enclosed private garden. Indoors and outdoors feel seamlessly interlinked – exposed brickwork mimicking the appearance of the garden walls and light tiles echoing the tones of the wood flooring.

Tranquillity awaits upstairs, the principal bedroom suite washed in cool colours. A contrasting blush wall draws warmth to the space, while floor-to-ceiling integrated wardrobes reduce noise. Seaside tones encompass the en suite bathroom, with sandy floorboards and sky-blue walls. A tiled shower, spacious bathtub, and marble dual vanity complete the space. Pastel palettes and sash windows elevate three additional bedrooms.
