8 bedroom detached house to rent

Immaculately finished with fastidious attention to detail, this impressive home vaunts immense volumes of chic living space set out for the demands of modern family life. Through the cast-iron gates, the exterior impresses at once. Immaculate red brick and a smart portico entrance, the grand proportions and clean finishes are a precursor to the sleek interiors.

The ground floor is the social hub of the home. With three reception spaces, the opportunities to entertain and relax – in both formal and informal settings – are in abundance. The pièce de résistance is the expansive open-plan kitchen and dining room. A room flooded with light emanating through sleek skylights and sliding pocket doors which span the width of the space. The kitchen epitomises stylish functionality, with smooth, whitewashed cabinets offering a sleek blueprint for culinary creativity. Adjacent, a dining table sits twelve, connected to an open-plan living room, which leads directly to a beautifully-manicured garden. An outdoors seating area invites long summer barbecues, with plenty of space for adults and kids to enjoy.

The eight bedrooms are spread out across the first and second floors, all characterised by their well-considered palettes, ample storage and reams of natural light. Head up the elegant staircase – note the decorative panelled-window as you ascend – and find the master suite. A tranquil space with smart wood floors and a natural palette, it’s complete with a walk-in wardrobe and gleaming en-suite bathroom. Amongst other luxurious wallpapers throughout the home, a standout is Cole & Son‘s wallpaper of a midnight woodscape that features in one of the children’s rooms – ushering you into a magical night-time setting.

Location
There’s a community feel to North Kensington, where the streets are lined with period architecture and leafy trees. With excellent proximity to both Golborne and Portobello Road, the opportunities for antique hunting and café hopping are in abundance. Pick up an authentic pastel de nata from Lisboa, before heading to Wormwood Scrubs for a summertime stroll. Spend an evening enjoying live music and Argentinian food at Laylow, or a Sunday roast at The Elgin.
