3 bedroom terraced house

A striking brick façade greets you at Kensington Park Mews, a charming mews home reconfigured by award-winning architects De Rosee Sa. Transforming the footprint from top to bottom with a basement level and a huge skylight alongside interior design by Beata Heuman, the result is welcoming and considered.

From the cobbled street, a navy-blue door leads into the home’s social heart, an open-plan kitchen and dining room. A skylight draws in reams of natural light, elegantly highlighting the room’s rich wooden cabinetry, and polished concrete island, worktops and floors. Integrated Gaggenau appliances, a breakfast bar and space for an eight-person dining table ensure hosting here comes naturally. The first of the bedrooms is also found on this floor, tucked behind a sliding door. Next door, a family bathroom enjoys underfloor heating, a rainfall shower and intricately painted tiles.

A floating spiral staircase makes a statement, illuminated from above by a skylight. Up on the first floor, wooden flooring runs into the reception room where a Chesneys fireplace takes centre stage, flanked by walls of Rupert Bevan mirrors. Southeast-facing sash windows fill the space with natural light, while a wall of custom-built shelving and an integrated desk are ideal for home working. For a more private set-up, the third bedroom-cum-study brings a feeling of calm.

The sense of tranquillity continues upstairs, where the principal bedroom suite enjoys its own floor. A bank of integrated storage dominates one wall, while a series of windows and a set of French doors fill the other. A private roof terrace enjoys views out over Notting Hill’s rooftops – with considered lighting and plants for privacy, it is perfect for warmer evenings and al fresco dining. Back inside, the en suite bathroom’s Bert & May tiles and Drummonds bathtub catch the eye.

At the opposite end of the house in the basement, kick back and relax with a movie marathon in the cinema and games room. There’s space for a pool table, complete with pendant lights by Lutron. State-of-the-art technology and security excel throughout, from the Control Four surround sound, media and lighting system to the five in-built security cameras, and Banham alarm, window locks and sensors.

Positioned around the corner from West London’s most famed market road, Kensington Park Mews is a springboard to Notting Hill at its most vibrant. Spend time browsing Portobello’s antiques shops or the boutiques of Westbourne Grove before heading to SoulCycle or Bodyism for an invigorating workout. Empire Empire and The Ledbury are on your doorstep for fine dining, plus a host of local watering holes: The Pelican and The Walmer Castle to name but two. You’re also a short distance from the area’s best nurseries and primary schools, ideal for those with growing families, while the Underground is close by to take you into central London and beyond.
