2 bedroom apartment to rent

Carefully designed flat with bright and colourful interiors on a charming street in Notting Hill

Stepping into the flat on the first floor, the entrance hall leads through to an impressive reception room with a full-height bay window. As well as a separate dining and seating area, this room flows into a fitted kitchen with an electric Aga and Shaker-style cabinetry from Neptune. Banquette seating for the dining table and a window seat in the bay make full use of the available space, while the double aspect gives this room a sense of brightness and calm.

To the rear are the bedrooms, the larger of the two serviced by a charming bathroom, and the second being ensuite. Both benefit from large, South facing windows and wardrobe space. The hallway also contains excellent additional storage.

The flat has been carefully designed to maximise the floorplate and take advantage of the end-of-terrace position. Home to an artist, its colourful blend of fabrics, wallpaper and paint create uplifting interiors in excellent condition. The property was featured in house and garden magazine.

The flat is part of a beautiful end-of terrace house, its red brick walls decorated with white stucco for the ground floor, windows and gabled roof. This building was once the studio of the stained-glass artist Edward Liddall Armitage. Blenheim Crescent is an attractive street in Notting Hill, lined with a colourful collection of stucco-fronted houses. Its eastern end meets the Portobello Road, while the many restaurants and shops of Notting Hill are within easy reach. In addition, Ladbroke Grove station is close, while Notting Hill Gate station is also in walking distance.
