At the heart of Notting Hill’s most storied street, a two-bedroom that sits in peaceful opposition to its characterful setting; the culmination of a two-year project extensively re-modelling the building behind a retained façade.

Spread over two floors and exclusively styled by local design studio Golborne 44, neutral tones pair with meticulous finishes to create refined living spaces. Delicate wainscoting adorns the hallway’s pristine white walls, making a welcome first impression. Herringbone floors lend an immediate sense of sophistication, flowing through to a spacious reception room. Detailed cornicing draws attention to the room’s generous proportions, while a large bay window floods the space with light and frames an iconic view of the Electric Cinema.

From here, a vista through to the garden leads to the open-plan kitchen and dining room. To the right, an L-shaped kitchen effortlessly enhances the sense of space.

Contrasting muted cabinetry, marble counters mottled with hues of pink, beige and grey, and a tiled backsplash, layer textural detail. Illuminating the adjacent dining area, sunlight floods in through glass doors that open onto an enclosed paved terrace.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom suite strikes a soothing tone with its pared-back colour palette. A large sash window draws in light, bringing warmth to the wooden floors. Floor-to-ceiling fitted wardrobes seamlessly meld into the space. Serene hues continue in the en suite bathroom, where pale blue Zellige tiles wrap around a spot-lit walk-in shower. A striking marble topped vanity offers additional storage.

The guest bedroom is equally inviting, with muted walls and spacious integrated wardrobes. Crittall glass partitions enhance the sense of space, showcasing the en suite bathroom where blush pink tiles encompass a walk-in shower. Above an artisan sourced sculptural stone basin, alcoves create stylish storage spaces.

At the heart of Portobello Road, options are endless here. Grab pastries from Maison Puget, then peruse the market’s eclectic range of stalls and food stands. Grab fresh fruit and veg from Devlin’s or visit local eatery Miznon for a taste of the Mediterranean. Head up to Golborne Road – famed for its fantastic cafes and restaurants – stopping by Chillie London to browse its vintage clothing collection. Complete your day with dinner at three-Michelin-starred Core by Clare Smyth, then a film at the Electric Cinema.
