Characterful penthouse property on a historic and sought-after street of grand white stucco villas

The flat is centred on a generous third-floor reception room. As well as separate dining and seating areas, vaulted ceilings peaking at 4m high add to the sense of space. Furthermore, a pair of south-facing French windows open onto the rear terrace, while front and side windows create a triple aspect and fill this space with light.

The flat also contains three bedrooms. The principal bedroom has a dressing room and a well-proportioned ensuite bathroom with a bath, shower, feature windows and a curved skylight creating a bright, conservatory-like space. The second bedroom is also ensuite, while the third bedroom on the second floor has a guest WC next door.

The flat is decorated in a creative and characterful style that adds to the splendour of the setting.

The flat includes a south-facing rear terrace with enough space for outdoor seating and views over the charming houses of Holland Park Mews.

The flat is part of a double-fronted stucco townhouse built in the mid-Victorian era. These grand villas were constructed between 1860 and 1880 by the brothers William and Francis Radford. Early residents of the street included aristocrats and statesmen, as well as prominent engineers, politicians and lawyers.

From here, Holland Park underground station is a few moments’ walk away, while the restaurants and shops of Notting Hill are also nearby. In addition, the open spaces of Holland Park are close.
