1 room apartment of 55m² in London

A row of portico-fronted townhouses sets the scene for Westbourne Park Road. Inside, heritage features and considered touches embody the character of this first-floor apartment’s coveted postcode. On entry, pale herringbone floors lead into an open-plan kitchen, dining and reception space where period details take quiet precedence. Built-in bookshelves flank a marble hearth and Victorian fireplace, while lofty ceilings, finished with intricate cornicing nod to the home’s past. Beneath the generous bay window, a gilded radiator and writing desk overlook the leafy street below. Deep green cabinetry punctuates the neutral palette in the kitchen, its handleless doors, marble splashback and integrated appliances delivering a streamlined finish. A built-in bench seat offers a natural place to pause, equally suited to morning coffee or long lunches. The bedroom continues the considered approach, dressed in soothing tones and lit by an amber glass pendant, with a walk-in wardrobe neatly tucked away. Through the sash window, a balcony awaits brighter days. The bathroom echoes the kitchen’s palette, wrapped in dark forest tiles and offset by gold hardware, a heated towel rail and a rainfall shower. *The council tax for the property is currently unbanded
