Kensington Gardens Square

Found in a Grade II listed stucco-fronted townhouse, this one-bed apartment for rent makes the most of its fourth-floor positioning.

A trio of arched windows make an eye-catching first impression as you enter the apartment, inviting an abundance of natural light into the open-plan living space. Along one wall, a white Modulnova kitchen with Carrara marble worktops create a streamlined culinary domain, while integrated Siemens appliances and a Quooker tap take care of all the practicalities. Dark beams bring a refreshing interplay of old and new, contrasting the warm wood tones of the Douglas fir floor. Sink into the Mario Bellini Camaleonda sofa as you switch off from the day.

A soothing palette and neutral tones continue into the bedroom, which exudes a sense of comfort and tranquillity. More dark beams bring a depth to the space, while a sash window alongside a smaller feature pane, channel natural light to the room. Fitted wardrobes dominate one corner, while a Meridiani armchair makes for the perfect place to relax in the other.

Next door, the bathroom features a Carrara marble bath, dual vanity and an elegant walk-in rainfall shower. The Vola taps and expansive mirrors complement the sleek and stylish design. Underfloor heating throughout the apartment ensures comfort no matter what the season.

Venturing upstairs, views out over the chimney tops unfold from the roof terrace, ready for London’s warmer months. The apartment also has access to a leafy communal garden square with its vast lawns, shaded corners, and tall trees – an idyllic oasis in the city.
