Rent 5 bedroom apartment of 170 m² in Queens Park

On an unassuming street in Kensal Rise, a hub of calm and colour awaits. A smart semi-detached exterior and private driveway set the scene. Inside, the reception room is an atmospheric space, brightened by a large bay window. Navy walls create a soothing, comfortable feel that’s accentuated by the deep leather sofas and a feature fireplace. Kick back and relax with a book from the fitted bookcases. Through a set of glass doors, the heart of the home unfolds. Hosting comes easy in the dining area complete with an eight-seater table, flowing seamlessly into the kitchen. Ribbed glass-fronted storage and distressed zinc cabinets topped with marble are illuminated by natural light flooding through the skylights. A Rangemaster and integrated state-of-the-art appliances ensure culinary endeavours are made easier. A striking Goldfinger island is the centrepiece, positioned below two salvaged 1940s air-hangar Holophane lights – along with the views out into the garden. For chillier days, there’s underfloor heating. Meanwhile, a desk enjoys the privacy of its own nook. Through the kitchen’s sliding doors, stone steps lead down to the private garden, complete with an Everdure Heston barbecue and pergola-covered dining area, perfect for al fresco evenings. At the bottom of the garden, a wood-clad outbuilding adds another dimension to the home. A gym dominates the room, kitted out with everything from a boxing bag to a Peloton bike. In the same space, a Murphy bed is tucked away in the wall, perfectly positioned when unfolded for the home cinema-style projector screen. A shower room serves the space. Back inside the house, the first floor is dedicated to bedrooms. A double room with a striking bay window and sage green walls exudes tranquillity. Bespoke storage and a contrasting ceiling emphasise the home’s heritage proportions. A window overlooking the garden fills the second bedroom with natural light. Its navy walls and turquoise picture rail add a playful element, while integrated storage ensures the double room remains functional. The final bedroom on this floor is a sanctuary of calm, which neutral walls, a cast-iron radiator and a comfortable television and sofa set up. Serving all three rooms, the family bathroom is an eclectic affair, with turquoise cabinetry, a glass mirror mosaic feature wall, and a walk-in shower with a 12-inch rainfall shower head. Up the herringbone-carpeted stairs, the second floor is home to the principal suite. With an in-room rolltop bathtub and a wall of bi-fold doors opening to reveal views out over southwest London, it is a haven for relaxation. The wet room-style en suite enjoys underfloor heating and in-wall towel heating, ensuring the top of the house is never cold. Dark teal subway tiles line all walls, while Lefroy Brooks brassware elegantly contrasts.
