With their white stucco frontages, the soaring townhouses of Westbourne Terrace have lost none of their period charm. Step inside this duplex apartment though and you’ll find a home reimagined with modern sensibilities. With its open-plan layout and neutral colour palette, function is prioritised throughout.
Arranged over the top two levels of the building, one floor is dedicated to communal spaces and the other to two bedroom suites. A black spiral staircase serves as a centrepiece in the reception room and kitchen. On one side, an L-shaped grey sofa and TV, plus a bookshelf fitted with reading lights that transforms the corner into a cosy reading nook. To the other, an oval dining table that seats six – with soft accent lighting courtesy of two hanging pendants.
A trio of windows look out over the plane trees that line the road. Enjoy the leafy views from the kitchen. Well-equipped and ergonomic, glossy black worktops pop against the white walls and cream units. There’s ample storage and preparation space, too.
On the floor above, the bedrooms are inviting in their simplicity. Fitted wardrobes reduce visual clutter while neutral shades keep the backdrops bright and airy. For those looking to get some work done, one features a desk positioned under the window. Both come with considered en suite bathrooms that add ease to morning routines.
