A one-bedroom apartment to rent above the more local side of Notting Hill. Crisply designed and well-connected.

A relaxed feel runs through the open-plan living space, where clean lines and classic details make easy companions. To one side, a Shaker-style kitchen brings a splash of colour with muted green cabinetry, grey-mottled splashbacks and a traditional butler sink. A wine fridge keeps things sociable, while the dining table seats four.

Across the room, a sofa invites you to sink in, with an oversized footstool and a television opposite. The sort of spot where dinner can simmer away while you catch up on your favourite series. Crittall doors draw light through to the artwork-lined hallway, with a skylight illuminating a dedicated desk space – a welcome addition on days spent working from home.

Just off the bedroom, a tucked away terrace makes the most of its rooftop setting. With room for two around a café table, these are the best seats in the house for a morning coffee or a glass of something chilled as the sun goes down.
