Flat for sale in Talbot Road, London W2

Found on the first floor of a quintessential Notting Hill townhouse, this recently renovated apartment strikes the balance between refined and relaxed. As part of a rare lateral conversion across two buildings, inside muted colours, considered materials and bespoke finishes elevate the smallest of details.

The natural hub of the home, the open-plan kitchen, living and dining room, is bookended by double-glazed timber sash windows that respect the building’s period roots. Opening onto a full-width balcony to the front of the home, two of these windows stretch from floor to ceiling, framing views out to the tree-lined street. Other focal points include a feature fireplace, bespoke joinery and statement light fixtures.

Ted Todd parquet flooring ties the living and dining spaces seamlessly with the inframe kitchen. Here countertops and cabinets arc into a satisfying curve, elevating the finish. Italian marble worktops, deVOL brassware and integrated Miele appliances, including a wine fridge, continue the polished feel.

Off the entrance hall, there are three bedrooms, all presented with considered, pared-back style. Neutral tones accentuate the principal suite’s generous proportions, aided further by plentiful natural light from the south-facing window. Small touches, like the hidden pelmet curtains, add a sense of finesse. Things take a bolder, more playful turn in the en suite bathroom, where chequerboard marble tiling, twin sinks and brass fittings by Waterworks are combined with dark walls to striking effect. There’s a separate walk-in shower and freestanding bathtub – the ultimate luxury. Two guest bedrooms are found towards the front of the apartment. Both share access to the aforementioned balcony and a marble-clad shower room.
