behind a handsome white stucco façade on a peaceful residential street moments from golborne road, this beautifully considered garden apartment unfolds across the ground and raised ground floors of a classic notting hill townhouse. rich in character and thoughtfully reimagined throughout, the home balances period detail with a warm, contemporary palette and an easy sense of flow between inside and out.
the raised ground floor is arranged around a generous dining room, where high ceilings, a working fireplace and soft natural light create an inviting central space for entertaining. to the front, the reception room sits within a wide bay window and has been finished in deep, cocooning tones, with bespoke shelving and original detailing. to the rear, the bespoke kitchen pairs dark cabinetry with timber worktops and open shelving, opening directly onto a private terrace overlooking the garden below.
the lower ground floor is dedicated to the bedroom accommodation. the principal suite occupies the front of the plan and opens onto a secluded patio courtyard, while the second bedroom is positioned alongside a large family bathroom with a freestanding bath and separate shower. extensive built-in storage and a utility area have been carefully integrated throughout.
outside, the south-facing garden feels unexpectedly tranquil for such a central location, framed by mature planting and enjoying sunlight through much of the day. a further terrace off the kitchen provides an additional outdoor spot.
faraday road is quietly positioned just behind golborne road, one of west london’s most vibrant neighbourhood pockets, known for its independent cafés, excellent restaurants and longstanding local institutions. portobello road, westbourne grove and the open green spaces of holland park are all within easy reach, while ladbroke grove station provides swift connections across the city.
