a stone’s throw from kensington gardens, lying at one of london’s most prestigious addresses, this vast six-bedroom family house is characterised by expansive living spaces and a pervading sense of calm. the home’s elegant white stucco facade leads to an interior painted in neutral tones, providing a versatile backdrop for its future owner.
the entrance hallway opens through double doors into an open-plan kitchen and dining area, featuring warm wood floors and light-filled dual-aspect sash windows. at the far end, the kitchen, accessible through wedding doors, is defined by timber cabinetry and stainless steel appliances, adding a modern touch. this floor also includes a quiet study, which connects via a glass conservatory to a private garden.
the entire first floor is given over to a formal reception room, defined by beautiful period features such as decorative cornicing, a ceiling rose, and a marble fireplace. whitewashed walls and glossy wood floors enhance the natural light. on the half landing, curved french windows open to a terrace with garden views below.
a second reception room on the lower ground floor leads directly to the patio. the principal bedroom suite occupies the entire second floor and has soft carpet underfoot and built-in wardrobes. the adjoining en suite bathroom is luxuriously appointed with a dual vanity and pebble-toned marble encasing a bath and separate shower.
five guest bedrooms are distributed across the lower-ground and third floors, each served by contemporary bathrooms. the top floor houses a wood-paneled gym room, complete with a bathroom and sauna.
palace gardens terrace is one of kensington′s most sought-after streets, famous for its stunning cherry blossoms that attract visitors from across london each spring. the house is just a short walk from notting hill gate tube station, providing access to the central, district, and circle lines. additionally, kensington high street, with its array of shops, restaurants, brasseries, and whole foods, is within easy walking distance.
