Step into this quirky, bright apartment and discover the hidden treasures of Notting Hill. Known for its antique markets, vintage clothes and glamorous boutiques, this home is an ode to the oh-so-trendy streets of Westbourne Grove and Portobello Road. There’s a perfect blend of rustic charm and modern chic inside the home’s living space, with abstract art adorning the walls, colourful pops of mint green, yellow and orange, plus an open-hearth fireplace feature, ornate mirrors and stunning chandeliers. The light sky blue kitchen is fitted with high spec appliances and floor-to-ceiling windows that bathe the space in natural light, making it an ideal spot for rustling up some drinks and snacks after a day roaming the markets. Close enough to the buzz of it all, yet perfectly placed in a quiet neighbourhood surrounded by leafy greens and charming townhouses, you’ll love sitting out in your private garden and firing up the barbecue. With Notting Hill’s artsy and electric cobblestone streets right around the corner, plus the tranquil green spaces of Kensington Gardens less than a half-hour walk away, this unique home is a real collector’s item – and one we certainly won't be passing up. Please note all stays of 8... nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.
