Westbourne Terrace

Primed for city living, this four-bedroom duplex apartment for rent is moments from some of West London’s hotspots.

Beneath the towering plane trees of Westbourne Terrace, a thoughtful interplay of contemporary design and period detail defines this third- and fourth-floor apartment.

On the lower level, living spaces are composed with a careful balance of character and calm. In the reception room, gallery-white walls are offset by panel moulding and intricate cornicing, while a sash window draws in natural light. An amber marble fireplace provides a focal point, set alongside contemporary finishes.

Beyond, double doors open into a kitchen and dining room where clean-lined, handleless cabinetry conceals integrated appliances. A breakfast bar overlooks the tree-lined street, while heritage furniture and another marble fireplace soften the modern additions. A study, wrapped in dark wood, opens via French doors onto a private patio with elevated views across the surrounding neighbourhood.

Upstairs, the sleeping quarters unfold beneath skylights, lending a sense of quiet retreat. The principal suite is pared-back and bright, with custom cabinetry and uninterrupted views stretching beyond the rooftops; original wooden floors run throughout. Its en suite bathroom is finished in grey stone, with a dual vanity and a generous walk-in double shower. Across the landing, two guest bedrooms echo the same calm material palette, served by a skylit family bathroom with a spa-like sensibility. A fourth bedroom on the lower floor offers flexibility – well-suited to guests or an au pair.
