Chesterton Road

Minimalist design meets characterful period features at this two-bedroom apartment for rent in North Kensington.

A mirror of its bright white exterior, this two-bedroom apartment is all gallery-white walls and light-filled living spaces. A compelling juxtaposition of period details and contemporary design, soaring ceilings and industrial-style beams allude to the property’s heritage, while spot lighting and black framed windows modernise the reception room. A central column provides the opportunity to zone the area for dining, entertaining and lounging.

To the right, a separate kitchen makes the most of space – with integrated appliances and cleverly placed storage creating a streamlined finish. A large window casts light across wooden worktops and contrasting white tiles.

Wood flooring flows into the principal bedroom, which channels a sleek feel through fitted wardrobes and minimalist design. A central beam and original cornicing add a decorative touch. A pared-back colour palette continues in the guest bedroom, a bright space with picturesque views onto the leafy street below.

Winding steps lead up from the reception room to a contemporary bathroom in neutral hues, where a microcement finish complements bronze fittings and a walk-in shower.
