1 bedroom apartment to rent

Ascend to the first floor of this quintessential Notting Hill townhouse, and enter an open-plan kitchen, dining and living room. Natural light is diffused across the space through double sash windows, accentuating the high ceilings and sweeping wood floors. The kitchen has an understated sophistication, pairing dark wood and hushed grey cabinets, with a mirrored splashback doubling the sense of space. A balcony set with cast-iron railings lies outside, overlooking the peaceful street below.

The principle bedroom’s king-sized bed, air conditioning, double glazing and a pared-back palette make for a thoroughly tranquil environment. Floor-to-ceiling wardrobes offer stylish organisation, with additional storage included on the half landing. Its ensuite bathroom features decorative tiling, a free-standing marble basin and walk-in shower. From the bedroom, there’s direct access to a decked terrace – a secluded suntrap during warmer months.

Location
Set on a row of immaculate period townhouses, this apartment offers an enviable springboard to the best of west London’s offerings. Chepstow Road is a short walk from the boutiques and eateries on Westbourne Grove: head to Granger & Co. for brunch or Jusu Brothers for a pick-me-up juice, before refreshing your wardrobe at Reformation or Sézane. After catching a film at Portobello Road’s coveted Electric Cinema, enjoy French cuisine at Caractere – home in five.
