St Stephens Gardens

Behind the stucco-fronted calm of St Stephen's Gardens, this three-bedroom maisonette for rent flows from pared-back interiors onto a private patio garden.

Set across the lower floors of a classic west London townhouse, this newly refurbished maisonette balances clean-lined design with a calm and considered approach.

Configured with entertaining in mind, the open-plan dining and reception room is all volume, light and a sophisticated palette. Bi-fold doors dissolve the boundary between inside and out, drawing daylight throughout and extending everyday routines through the garden beyond. The shaker kitchen brings a more tactile note to the contemporary architecture: sleek yet understated, it pairs streamlined navy cabinetry with generous preparation space.

A sense of calm runs through the bedrooms. The principal suite takes the upper floor, fitted with extensive storage, an integrated desk and a door that opens to a Juliet balcony overlooking the garden. Its en suite shower room is equally considered, curated with a sweep of white marbled tiles. A neighbouring study offers flexibility – functional as a workspace, reading room or occasional guest bedroom. On the lower level, the third bedroom also benefits from its own en suite.
