Clarendon Road, Londres

Set on the corner of Clarendon Road and Portland Road, overlooking the beautiful pastel-coloured Victorian houses of Elgin Crescent, this wonderfully bright and beautifully refurbished two-bedroom apartment occupies the second and top floor of an impressive Grade II listed, white stucco-fronted Victorian building in one of Notting Hill’s most desirable residential locations.
Extending to approximately 700sq. ft., this beautifully proportioned lateral apartment has been thoughtfully refurbished, combining period character with contemporary finishes and excellent attention to detail. The result is an elegant, welcoming home with an abundance of natural light, wonderful views and a feeling of space that makes it seem considerably larger than its square footage suggests.
A particularly generous entrance hall creates a lovely first impression, leading through to a bright open-plan kitchen, dining and reception room with beautiful east-facing views along Elgin Crescent. The outlook is quintessential Notting Hill, with colourful Victorian houses and leafy residential streets. There is ample room to relax, dine and entertain, with engineered wood flooring, traditional column radiators and carefully considered recessed lighting creating a lovely balance between old and new.
The stylish English Shaker-style kitchen features painted ash cabinetry, antique brass handles, engineered quartz worktops and a matching splashback. Integrated appliances include a NEFF oven, induction hob, dishwasher and stacked fridge-freezer, alongside a deep SCHOCK sink and soft-closing drawers. Traditional four-panel doors and Jedo antique brass knurled handles throughout the apartment add to the quality of the finish.
Both bedrooms are generous doubles, with timber sash windows allowing natural light to flood in and carpeting creating a warm, cosy feel. One bedroom enjoys west-facing views towards Holland Park, together with beautifully designed alcove shelving and integrated lighting.
The separate bathroom is equally impressive, featuring premium Urban porcelain tiling with a contemporary concrete-effect finish, a generous walk-in shower, Aquaroc vanity unit, coordinating mirror and modern sanitaryware.
The apartment has been redecorated using Farrow & Ball paints, with updated wiring and plumbing, attractive period detailing and cleverly incorporated storage. Being on the top floor is a further advantage, offering elevated views, excellent natural light and the added peace of having no neighbours above. With approximately 125 years remaining on the lease, this is a wonderful turnkey home, ready to move straight into.
The location is quite special, perfectly positioned between Notting Hill and Holland Park, surrounded by beautiful architecture, independent boutiques, charming cafés and some of West London’s best-loved restaurants. Just around the corner is Clarendon Cross, a delightful neighbourhood enclave, home to the much-loved Julie’s Restaurant on Portland Road, whilst Holland Park Avenue offers a wonderful selection of local shops and everyday amenities.
Portobello Road and its famous market are within easy walking distance, along with the boutiques, restaurants and cafés of Westbourne Grove. Local favourites include Ottolenghi, The Ledbury and Lidgate’s butcher, whilst Westfield London at White City offers extensive shopping and leisure facilities.
For those who enjoy green spaces, Holland Park is close by, with its beautiful landscaped gardens, woodland walks and peaceful Kyoto Garden. Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park are also easily accessible, offering wonderful places to walk, exercise or simply escape the bustle of London.
Transport connections are excellent, with Holland Park Underground Station within walking distance, providing Central line services towards Oxford Circus and the City. Notting Hill Gate offers Central, Circle and District line connections, whilst Ladbroke Grove and Latimer Road provide access to the Circle and Hammersmith & City lines. Shepherd’s Bush offers further Underground, Overground and rail connections.
What makes this address so appealing is the balance between its peaceful residential setting and the vibrant lifestyle of Notting Hill. Whether it is a morning coffee, a stroll through Portobello Market, lunch at Julie’s or an afternoon in Holland Park, everything that makes this neighbourhood so desirable is right on your doorstep.
