2 rooms flat of 181m² in London

Set among Notting Hill’s sleepier streets, this ground-floor apartment brims with aristocratic charm. Past a door knocker once belonging to Lady Dorothy Nevill – discover a home steeped in story. Here, antique portraits line the walls and original wood floors guide the way. The reception room is a masterclass in scale, with grand proportions punctuated by an expansive bay window. Floor-to-ceiling glass panes create a dramatic dining backdrop and give way to a wraparound balcony. Cinder rose walls are crowned with intricate cornicing and softly-lit artwork; Versailles-style sofas add a cinematic quality to the setting. In the neighbouring kitchen, thoughtful functionality maximises the footprint – there’s overhead storage and neatly tucked away appliances. Green hues by Colefax & Fowler play against bespoke pink cabinetry, while a marble countertop and Miele oven lend a more modern flourish. A bolder turn is taken in the principal bedroom, where a Mediterranean-inspired mural and teal-toned walls wrap around curated artwork and a King-sized bed. Full-height windows flood the space with light; heavyweight curtains keep it out when needed. The second bedroom is washed in sage, a restful setting with a muraled backdrop and antique French writing desk. Serving both bedrooms, the family bathroom is indulgent in all aspects. From a copper roll-top tub that faces a discreet TV to a bespoke vanity fitted with a London Basin Company sink. Hand-blown tiles, antique brass fittings and underfloor heating complete the elevated experience. Location Perfectly located to enjoy the buzz of Notting Hill and the calm of Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park, Pembridge Square has a best-of-both-worlds feel. Stop by Guillam Coffee House for a morning brew; then wander along to Westbourne Grove for lunch at Beam, Sumi or the Barbary. In the other direction, ever-popular Portobello Road awaits. Browse the market, catch a film at the Electric Cinema or dine at Gold. Notting Hill Gate - 6 mins (Central, District, Circle Lines)
