1 bedroom apartment for sale

Behind an elegant, stucco-fronted façade on one of West London’s most sought-after streets, this one-bedroom apartment makes the most of its heritage framework. The portico entryway offers a smart initial impression, continued as you enter the home on the first floor.

With its pale colour scheme and restrained material palette, there’s an uplifting feel as you enter the open-plan kitchen, dining and reception room. Reams of natural light pour through large south-facing sash windows, illuminating the ornate cornicing that wraps around the high ceilings. To one side, a decorative fireplace is a cosy focal point for the living area; to the other, brushed brassware pops against a white marble splashback in the kitchen.

Symmetry and serenity unite in the principal bedroom. Fitted storage stretches over the bed, while sunlight brightens the room through a large window. Down a short set of steps, there’s a study space with versatility to be used as an additional dressing room or gym space. In the bathroom, charcoal-blue walls contrast with gilded hardware and vertical metro tiles that wrap around the shower.

Ladbroke Grove is an arterial road connecting some of West London’s most desirable enclaves, with one foot in North Kensington and the other in Notting Hill. Vibrant Golborne Road is close by, with an exciting food scene including Straker’s, Layla Bakery and Fat Badger. Portobello Road is iconic with its antiques shops and food markets, as well as the coveted Electric Cinema. Venture down to Holland Park with its manicured lawns and charming Kyoto Garden. Complete an evening with dinner and drinks at local favourites: Gold, Julie’s and The Ledbury.
