Tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined street in one of London's most affluent areas, this gorgeous flat provides you with a welcoming home from home. It might only be a twenty-minute Tube journey from some of the busiest parts of the city, yet it feels like a million miles.
Explore your picturesque surroundings and discover a romanticised Richard Curtis version of the capital within a short stroll – the iconic Notting Hill Book Shop and the world-famous Portobello Road antique market are no more than ten minutes away on foot. A little over a mile away, you'll encounter the vast green expanse of Hyde Park – perfect for head-clearing strolls in nature and summer swims in the Serpentine Lido.
After a day of exploring, return to your peaceful sanctuary, where original Victorian features – think lovely sash windows, ornate ceiling mouldings and a gorgeous open fireplace – sit alongside eye-catching artwork and elegant mid-century pieces to create a timelessly stylish space.
We're sure the well-equipped kitchen will speak to the culinarily creative (it even has a deli meat slicer). So stock up on top-quality produce at Daylesford Organic and plate up mouthwatering homemade meals on the panoramic rooftop terrace. Alternatively, if a day of discovery has left you feeling drained, Notting Hill is home to some of the capital's most creative restaurants.
