Kensington Park Road

Period architecture meets contemporary elegance in this two-bedroom Notting Hill apartment, with soaring ceilings, stained-glass accents and a double balcony.

Lined with mature trees and Victorian architecture, Kensington Park Road is one of Notting Hill’s most exclusive addresses. Echoing its refined heritage streetscape, this two-bedroom lateral apartment has been crafted with a classic interior eye. Spread across two terraced townhouses, the home enjoys a spacious footprint and high ceilings – bound by a refined material palette.

Ascend to the first floor, where an entrance hallway leads into the welcoming reception room. Pale pink walls stretch upwards to reach clean-line cornicing, smart wood floors run underneath and an elegant fireplace makes for a cosy focal point. The space is bathed in sunlight, courtesy of two full-height shuttered windows. Beyond the glazing, there’s access to a private double balcony – offering space for al fresco entertaining above the peaceful road.

Cleverly zoned via a set of steps, the dining room is similarly sun-drenched through large stained-glass windows that look out to leafy vistas. It’s a tranquil setting for entertaining, served by the shaker-style kitchen next door. Here, muted cabinetry and smooth worktops make for a stylish and streamlined culinary setting.

Matching the home’s social heart, the principal bedroom suite is all soft tones and reams of natural light, setting a serene canvas for interior creativity. Interior French doors lead into the en suite bathroom, which enjoys a freestanding bath backdropped by full-height stained-glass windows. Completing the home is a guest bedroom and separate bathroom.
