Located in the leafy neighbourhood of Holland Park in West London's Notting Hill area, this sleek and modish second-floor apartment has been newly decorated and is just a 5 minute walk to the generous green spaces and ornamental gardens of Holland Park and a 1 minute walk to Holland Park Underground station (on the handy Central line).
Just a ten minute walk is the buzzing Westfield Shopping Centre, London's Premier shopping destination. Just 15 minutes through the park to lively High Street Kensington where you’ll find both the Whole Foods emporium and Kensington Palace (Home to the Royal couple, Kate and William).
An entry hall with in-built wardrobe leads into the open-plan kitchen and dining area. The modern kitchen has rustic wooden worktops and all the appliances you might need in order to prepare a meal at home and a dining table, which comfortably seats four, but often hosts six. Leading out of the kitchen is access to a very generously sized roof terrace... an ideal spot to relax after a long day out exploring the Capital!
The airy living room, to the front of the apartment, looks out over tree-lined Holland Park Avenue and is flooded with natural light. Varnished oak wooden floorboards, contemporary furniture and carefully selected artwork make this a lovely room in which to relax. A large flat-screened TV with Cable, DVD and MP3 players provide entertainment. Upon request, the sofa bed can be set up to accommodate an extra adult, or two children.
The master bedroom is comfortably set up with a double bed and a chest of drawers for storage, as well as a baby cot which can be made available on request. The bathroom has a generous Bette bath (with Grohe shower) and sleek white tiling contrasting against the dark tiles of the flooring. Separate personal reading lights are supplied for the bedroom.
This property is the perfect escape for a couple or small family wishing to visit the fashionable area of Notting Hill with the world renowned Portobello Market and all its treasures nestled within the historic antique and food stalls. For those familiar with the quintessential British film ‘Notting Hill’ the street where this was filmed may well be worth a visit!
