1 room flat of 51m² in London

On one of Notting Hill’s most picturesque crescents, this second-floor apartment strikes a balance between character and comfort. Its elevated setting brings exceptional light and far-reaching views over St Stephen’s Church – a rare vantage point in Notting Hill. The open-plan living space is the heart of the home: inviting, tactile and full of personality. Heritage features – original wooden floors and an ornate period fireplace – set a timeless tone, while neutral walls keep things calm and contemporary. South-east facing sash windows draw in natural light, framing the architecture of the street below. The kitchen adds a burst of vibrancy: bright blue cabinetry and a matching splashback make a confident statement, softened by wooden countertops. An island doubles as a breakfast bar – a casual spot to eat or entertain. Opposite, the bedroom continues the apartment’s considered approach – light, neutral and neatly arranged with floating shelves and fitted wardrobes. The family bathroom takes a more tonal turn, wrapped in beige tiling with a bathtub and overhead shower.
