Features and description
This light-filled four-bedroom conversion occupies a former shop between West Kilburn and North Kensington, originally constructed in 1882. Spanning across three storeys, the interiors were thoughtfully renovated by the current owners who applied a refreshing pared back palette throughout and installed well-crafted plywood joinery. Sitting on the northern banks of the Grand Union Canal the house opens to a generous terrace overlooking the waterfront, just a short walk away from the boutiques and cafés of Westbourne Grove, Portobello Market and Maida Vale.
The Tour
A mix of stock and red-brick rises orderly across the three-storeys façade, with the upper floors punctuated by new sash windows. At street level, the former shop front incorporates obscured glazing and is washed in a rich, bottle green hue.
The green-painted front door opens to the hallway, finished with 'Caddie' by Paint and Paper Library. Except for a few bold bursts of colour, a restrained palette has been applied throughout the house, with most of the spaces finished with crisp white walls. The original quarry tiles have been retained and extend to the open plan kitchen and dining room, with a direct line of sight toward the canal at the rear. Here, high ceilings create a sense of openness, while a large bronze panel positioned on the wall reflects the light from the frosted glass above. Bespoke plywood units are fronted by a substantial island, topped with sleek marble surfaces offering abundant space for food preparation. Integrated appliances by include an induction hob and double oven, a Samsung fridge and freezer and an AEG washing machine and tumble dryer. The dining area is anchored by two built-in benches with underneath storage space.
A short flight of steps ascends to the bright living room, screened from the kitchen by a wall of ceramic Cobogó bricks imported from Brazil that allows natural light to flow across the space. South-facing French glass doors open directly to the canal. The current owners benefit from mooring rights which are subject to application. The sitting area is oriented toward a full-height bank of plywood joinery, home to the TV unit alongside open shelving and cupboards. A light-toned ply parquet extends underfoot in a herringbone pattern. Also on this floor is a separate WC room, clad in bright orange tiles and fitted with a Barbican sink.
A staircase rises to the landing, painted in a moody slate shade and fitted with carpets that extend to the bedrooms. Tranquil and private, the principal bedroom is positioned to the rear and opens to a spacious terrace, with serene views of the water. There is a spacious fitted wardrobe and alcoves at each side of the bed with built-in shelving. The blue-tiled en suite is well appointed with a shower cubicle. The second bedroom is at the front of the plan and two more are on the uppermost floor, served by a shared bathroom with a shower over bath.
Outdoor Space
A generous private terrace is accessed from the principal bedroom on the first floor. South-facing and private, it looks directly over the canal and offers the perfect spot to sip a coffee or relax, with space for a large lounging area.
The Area
Harrow Road is brilliantly positioned for making the most of the shops, restaurants and bars of Westbourne Grove, Portobello and Notting Hill.
Nearby Golborne Road is home to a host of amenities, including yoga/wellness studio Love Supreme, the well-regarded Straker’s and the famous Lisboa patisserie. A little further south is Portobello Market with local favourites Layla Bakery and Flying Horse Coffee. Sister to The Pelican, Fat Badger serves up delicious food and drinks. The Golborne Deli and Wine Shop is a one-stop shop for an evening’s hosting.
A five minutes’ walk away, Jaego’s House is an innovative family members club and nursery complete with a jungle gym, a kids’ cinema and classes for both the children and their parents. The new arts and social club, Ladbroke Hall, lies at the end of St Marks’ Road on Barlby Road, where there are jazz nights, poetry readings, theatre shows and live music, as well as an Italian Restaurant, Pollini.
The surrounding area teems with brilliant, state and private, schooling options. St Thomas’ CofE Primary School, Queen’s Park Primary School and St Peter’s CofE School are within easy reach. For older pupils, the nearby Paddington Academy, All Saints Catholic College and Westminster Academy are well regarded by local families.
The house is well served by public transports. Westbourne Park station is a 14-minute walk, with the Circle line connecting to King’s Cross in around 14 minutes. Queen’s Park station is a 15 minutes’ walk away, served by the Bakerloo and Lioness lines.
