Cambridge Gardens

On one of North Kensington’s most coveted streets, this three-bedroom garden apartment is timeless in style and tailored to modern city living.

Cambridge Gardens’ rows of handsome Victorian villas exude architectural appeal. Spread across the garden level of a period townhouse, this three-bedroom apartment is drawn with refined interior style and an abundance of natural light.

The home’s entrance sits behind the off-street parking, down a set of steps. A hallway laid with glossy stone opens into the reception room, with pale walls and wood floors offering a neutral canvas for interior creativity. Wide arches work to delineate living spaces and create a sense of seamless flow throughout the storey; beyond the reception area, find the open-plan kitchen and dining room. Shaker-style cabinets are finished in a pale blue, centred by a quartz-topped island. Appliances are neatly ergonomic: note the Quooker tap and integrated hob. Bright light is drawn into the plot through a row of skylights and floor-to-ceiling glazing. Beyond the French doors, the garden is a quiet leafy sanctum; a set of plum trees blossom to beautiful effect in springtime.

The principal bedroom suite is a calming affair, with neutral tones and sunlight that pours through three sash windows. A row of whitewashed wardrobes provide a minimalist storage solution, while the en suite bathroom takes a bolder turn: a range of Porcelanosa tiles provide material tactility, framing the rainfall shower with their earthy colours. Next door, a guest bedroom is understated — with a French window that opens onto the garden beyond. A third bedroom offers versatility to be used as a study or dressing area, complete with integrated wardrobes. A family bathroom, crafted with multi sized tiles, completes the home.
