2 bedroom apartment to rent

Set on the ground floor of a quintessential Notting Hill townhouse, there’s a distinguished feel to this period apartment, recently refurbished with contemporary sensibility. Original features and a 3.4-metre-high ceiling elevate the kitchen and reception room – a sweeping, open-plan space of generous proportions. Large sash windows bookend the room, facing east and west, ensuring a steady stream of natural light throughout the day.

To one side, a wall of fitted cabinetry keeps the seating area streamlined. To the other, a shaker-style kitchen has a polished finish, complete with dark cabinetry, marble worktops and smart parquet flooring. An in-built banquet and island give options for dining, depending on the occasion.

A hallway separates the communal areas from the bedrooms, both of which feature convenient fitted storage. The principal is a considered space painted in sage green tones. Two bathrooms serve the home – one with a mosaic-tiled walk-in shower, the other with a bathtub – plus a separate cloakroom.

Location
A stone’s throw from Notting Hill Gate, West London is your oyster at Linden Gardens. Mornings here start with a run in Kensington Gardens followed by coffee from Kuro. Hit Portobello Road before the weekend crowds for brunch at Farm Girl and a browse of the market stalls. Peruse the latest releases at Daunt Books or explore the Serpentine Gallery – both in easy reach of your front door. In the evening, choose between local favourites Mazi and Gold for dinner, or head to The Hillgate for drinks.
