Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

Even the most discerning of guests won't fail to be utterly mesmerised by this incredible home nestled away in one of London's most coveted neighbourhoods. Where to even begin? Well, the light-filled reception room is the first space you'll be greeted with upon entrance and is one of the most striking spots in the entire house thanks to the high ceilings, parquet floors and lavish furnishings. We're equally smitten by the vast kitchen-dining room, full of sleek surfaces and copious amounts of natural light, but step through the glass doors here and you'll find a peaceful patio. Remarkably, guests also get access to a rooftop terrace and a shared four-acre park, too. And that's before you get to the wealth of amenities found throughout the other storeys. The in-house pilates studio – yes, really – comes with a TV, shower and kitchenette to help with your workouts, while there are some beautiful bathtubs in which to tend to sore muscles afterwards. Add to that a media room for movie-watching and a study in case you need to check for emails, and you're covered for every eventuality. Although there's plenty to keep you occupied at home, you're not short of distractions in the local area, too. The gardens and curios of Holland Park lie ten minutes' walk around the corner, while the brunch spots and boutiques of Notting Hill take a similar amount of time to reach in the back of a taxi.

Local guide


About Holland Park

Filled with mews streets, stucco mansions and green spaces, Holland Park is an idyllic neighbourhood sandwiched between Notting Hill, Kensington and Shepherd's Bush. Holland Park itself is one of London's most picturesque green spaces with a rich history. Today, the park boasts an open-air theatre and opera, Japanese-style Kyoto Gardens and a family playground. For dining, try Julie's and The Belvedere, and for a refreshing pint or aperol spritz, the Mitre and The Ladbroke Arms are a couple of great, classic British pubs in the area.
