Pembridge Mews

Monochrome cool on a colourful Notting Hill mews. A two-bedroom home. Four immaculately designed floors to spread out.

A home for connoisseurs of contemporary style. Where a minimalist framework – clean-cut lines, ample light and white – sets an understated backdrop for furnishings that double as works of art. Two bedrooms. Four floors to spread out. Effortless cool. The jet-black exterior strikes a sharp, sophisticated note that resonates inside. Step off the cobbled mews and into a living space that takes ownership of the entire ground floor. Note the oversize windowsill that acts as discreet storage, a display case and a daybed. A smart space in form and function.

From its corner vantage point, dual-aspect, frosted windows follow the arc of the sun, capitalising on natural rays without compromising on privacy. But the pièce de résistance has to be the triple-height stairwell. Its sharp angles and glass balustrades channel light, stitching together this living space with the first-floor master suite and airy kitchen-dining room on the lower ground. Throughout, handless storage and seamlessly integrated appliances keep things fuss-free and, quite simply, fantastic. It’s especially notable in the bedroom, where a Crittall panelling and barely-there wardrobe doors create a generous walk-in dressing area that maximises the sense of space and light. Long days are best finished in the extra-deep tub of the neighbouring bathroom.

Attuned to its subterranean position, a second bedroom cum cinema offers flexiable living. Soft, recessed lighting harmonising with earthy tones and textures. It’s a place for hunkering down with a good film on quiet evenings. Or perhaps a guest room for those who drop in for dinner and linger into the small hours – an adjoining bathroom features a walk-in shower. An indulgent home, designed for modern life.
