2 rooms flat of 52 m² in London

With its grand portico entrances, cast iron railings and intricate plaster mouldings, Westbourne Park Road’s architectural credentials are well preserved. On the first floor of an elegant villa, this two-bedroom apartment capitalises on generous period proportions. High ceilings and large sash windows contribute to the feeling of space throughout. Towards the back of the property, the inviting reception room is finished in cool grey tones. A stone fireplace creates a focal point, while a fitted bookcase frames the door and offers ample storage. For those who like to entertain, there’s room for a dining table.The adjoining kitchen is similarly well conceived. Shaker-style units with tongue and groove cladding and wooden worktops add a farmhouse feel. Open shelving makes a feature of the impressive ceiling height and keeps culinary essentials in easy reach. To the front of the property, two bedrooms overlook the regal façades of Westbourne Park Road. Both are dominated by large sash windows which open onto a balcony. A sense of calm prevails thanks to the neutral tones and understated design. Warm-toned marble surfaces and floor-to-ceiling tiling add a contemporary finish to the bathroom. Two mirrored wall panels brighten the room and boost the feeling of space. Shelves and storage beneath the sink keep things streamlined.
