Beautifully Rebuilt Five Storey Townhouse In Notting Hill

From the outside, this looks like a classic London townhouse, but behind its traditional façade, the house has been rebuilt from the ground up. The result is a carefully designed home that combines the character of period architecture with clever use of space, high-quality finishes and all the practicalities of modern living, spread across five floors.

The layout makes clever use of the space, with a generous reception room upstairs and a smart kitchen and dining area below that feels made for family meals and entertaining. The interiors strike a nice balance between traditional and contemporary, with oak panelling and a fireplace bringing warmth to the reception room, while the kitchen has a cleaner, more modern feel. There’s also a spacious private terrace just off the living space, ideal for a morning coffee or a drink outside when the weather plays along. The property also benefits from access to Prince’s Square communal gardens.

The house has three bedrooms, including a particularly generous principal suite spanning an entire floor. The other two bedrooms sit above, making them ideal for family, guests or even a home office. The finishes are smart without feeling overdone, with natural materials and plenty of built-in storage keeping things practical as well as good-looking.

On the lower level, a versatile family room is currently set up as a cinema and entertainment space, perfect for film nights or somewhere to relax away from the main living areas. A separate utility room and bathroom on this floor make it all the more practical, without needing to head back upstairs.

One of the real advantages of having rebuilt the house is the attention given to the things that can often be overlooked in older Victorian properties. Air conditioning, underfloor heating, an efficient heating and ventilation system, and integrated security have all been incorporated from the outset, making for a home that’s as practical as it is well finished.

Then there’s the location. Hereford Road puts you right between Bayswater and Notting Hill, with Westbourne Grove’s cafés, restaurants and shops just around the corner. Portobello Road is close by for weekend browsing, while Hyde Park offers a welcome bit of greenery when you need a change of pace. And for something a little more special, some of the area’s best-known restaurants are practically on your doorstep.
