Positioned towards the quieter end of Portobello Road, this corner plot apartment makes a bold first impression. Past its traditional Victorian exterior, interludes of colour create a vibrant space for city living.

Ascend to an open-plan living room, where white walls provide the canvas for a spectrum of shades that dance across the space. The kitchen commands immediate attention – its forest green cabinetry contrasted by terracotta-toned tiles. Gently lit by rattan pendant lights, a stone-topped island offers additional storage and seating.

Finished in dark green trim, two large sash windows cast light across the dining and reception space. Form meets function with cushioned banquette seating, the wall panelling behind echoing the tones of the kitchen tiles. Overhead, shelving provides added space for storage or showcasing artwork. Defining the reception space, yellow tiling draws focus to a white-painted feature fireplace. Leading from the entrance, a small, brightly lit study.

Across the second floor, a neutral palette sets the scene for creative styling in the principal bedroom suite. Cream carpet underfoot and an exposed wood beam overhead lend a soft ambience, while deep-toned windows and a matching column radiator add depth. To the rear of the space, a doorway leads through to a dressing area fitted with integrated wardrobes. Slate-coloured tiles juxtapose white walls in the en suite bathroom, complete with a walk-in shower.

Navy blue tones take over the guest bedroom suite, a painted brick feature wall offering a quiet contrast. A walk-in wardrobe leads the way to a marble-tiled en suite bathroom, containing a spacious rainfall shower and bathtub.

An enviable feature for London’s warmer seasons, a spacious roof terrace awaits at the top of the home.

Portobello Road sits at the centre of the action, with its wealth of vintage stores and exceptional eateries. Start your day with a fresh juice or smoothie from Portobello Juice Café, then wander down past the character-filled coffee shops and stalls. Stop by Ukai for sushi, grab your afternoon literature from the Notting Hill Bookshop, then kick back in Holland Park. Come evening, renowned restaurants are just a stone’s throw away. Try three-Michelin-starred Core by Clare Smyth or hit up Laylow for live music.
