The tranquil character of Westbourne Gardens is seamlessly translated inside this three-bedroom duplex, with pared-back tones and swathes of natural light. Happiness was the motivating theme behind the home’s design, expertly choreographed by architect Dalia Kaloustian.

The open-plan reception room bears the hallmarks of the property’s period heritage – exceptional ceiling height emphasised with decorative cornicing and full-height sash windows framed with shutters. A neutral interior palette is invigorated with bold pops of yellow, whilst whitewashed walls lend attention to contemporary artwork. A large chartreuse-toned sofa makes for a relaxed living area, whilst a sleek black dining table sits behind. Immaculate parquet floors span the entire space, leading into the kitchen. At its centre, a marble-topped island doubles as a breakfast bar. Behind the integrated hob and runs of glossy cabinets, a mirrored splashback works to amplify the light that beams through a large window. For al fresco interludes, the terrace is complete with a barbecue and leafy planters. The home also enjoys exclusive access Westbourne Gardens, with soaring trees casting dappled sunlight across its manicured lawns.

Upstairs, the master bedroom suite is a minimalist sanctuary infused with natural light. Its pale walls and blonde floors set a serene tone, with floor-to-ceiling mirrored wardrobes accentuating the sense of space. Its en suite bathroom is a stylish affair, wrapped in oversized marble tiles. Sharing the pared-back tones of the master are two guest bedrooms – one with versatility to be used as a home office. A spacious bathroom featuring a large walk-in shower sits next door.

Location:
A charming garden square of white stucco fronted houses with ornate ironwork, Westbourne Gardens is a picturesque pocket well-placed to reach Notting Hill’s best offerings. Westbourne Grove is just moments away, set for boutique shopping and artisanal brunches. Further beyond, the infamous Portobello Road is lined with antique stalls and fresh produce stalls. For invigorating workouts, head to Bodyism, 1Rebel or Psycle or it’s a short walk to the manicured lawns of Hyde Park – the Serpentine Lido is set for early-morning swims.
