1 bedroom flat to rent

Behind a handsome portico-fronted exterior, a one-bedroom apartment marries period proportions with contemporary flair. High ceilings – adorned with decorative cornicing – impress at once, as you enter the spacious open-plan kitchen and reception room. The atmosphere is at once uplifting and calming, with reams of light flooding through the three large west-facing windows, all of which can be used to access the private balcony that overlooks the leafy street below.

Elegant heritage features converse with modern accents; a feature fireplace faces the stylish kitchen, with latch-free cabinets and AEG appliances including a freestanding integrated fridge freezer. A ladder leads to a mezzanine storage level – ensuring the space is clutter-free.

The bedroom is soothing and serene, with a pared-back palette brightened through sash windows. Its ensuite bathroom is a sleek affair wrapped in pale marble tiles, with an oversized walk-in shower and panel of switchable opaque glass.

This sophisticated first-floor apartment also benefits from noise cancelling insulation between floors, smart heating and access to a communal garden.

Just moments away from the array of boutiques and eateries that characterise fashionable Westbourne Grove, Kensington Gardens Square could not be better located to enjoy Notting Hill’s best offerings. Groceries from Planet Organic and bread from 101 West. Psycle or 1Rebel are on your doorstep for invigorating workouts, or head to Hyde Park for a morning dip in the Serpentine Lido. Getting around London and further afield is a breeze, with Royal Oak, Queensway and Paddington station all within a 15-minute walk.
