1 bedroom penthouse to rent

At the intersection of two iconic roads, this lateral home is a stepping stone to Notting Hill’s hustle and bustle. Bakeries, classic cafés and antique offerings are merely moments away; inside, bespoke interior design shapes a setting that soothes.

Vaulted ceilings create breathing room throughout, drawing daylight across the living area’s lime plaster walls. Composed rather than styled, built-in joinery allocates areas with purpose. Contrast comes into play in the kitchen: a Calacatta Viola worktop lends drama to the clean-lined cabinetry, while contemporary appliances are neatly fitted. A built-in banquette offers a relaxed backdrop for dining, while two tall sash windows bring a convivial air to the lounge.

A focus on texture ensues in the principal bedroom: bespoke wardrobes are thoughtfully integrated, vaults lift the ceiling line and the atmosphere remains hushed. In summer, integrated air conditioning keeps things cool. A stylish shower room completes the plan, finished with limestone floor tiles, soft tones and a walk-in shower backdropped by Calacatta Viola porcelain.

Location
Perfectly located to enjoy the buzz of Notting Hill and the calm of Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park, Pembridge Road has a best-of-both-worlds feel. Cafés and coffee shops line the streets nearby – stop by Amoret for a quick caffeine kick or start the day well with a green bowl from atis. Wander along to Westbourne Grove for lunch at Beam, Sumi or the Barbary. In the other direction, the ever-popular Portobello Road awaits. Browse the market, catch a film at the Electric Cinema or dine at Gold.
