2 rooms flat of 83m² in London

In the heart of Kensington, Holland Street has a calming feel. The long residential stretch features classic stock-brick townhouses and mature leafy trees, interspersed with independent shops along Kensington Church Street. Tucked away in one of these period buildings, a two-bedroom apartment breathes contemporary calm into its lateral footprint. Whitewashed walls and pale parquet floors set the scene as you step into the entrance hallway. From here, a glass-panelled door opens to the spacious reception room. Natural light pours through two sash windows, illuminating the considered interior design: built-in timber bookshelves, stone-coloured tuxedo sofas, a minimalist mantle and textured rug. The neutral tonal palette creates a sense of continuity in the kitchen and dining room beyond. Designed by Sola Kitchens, solid birch and oak cabinets are visually striking with their clean lines – complemented by Uni stone Valley White worktops and splashback. Neatly integrated appliances, including a Bora pure induction cooker and Bosch dishwasher, keep things streamlined. A wood dining table and cushioned banquette make for a stylish eating area. Two bedrooms are serene and sophisticated spaces, both with soft wool carpets underfoot. The larger principal room enjoys a wall of full-height wardrobes, sculptural pendant lights and a mid-century style armchair. The guest bedroom showcases similar neutral tones and is finished with ample cupboard space. Completing the home, two modern bathrooms are crafted by CP Hart.
