Flat for sale in Blenheim Crescent, London W11

Set on the corner of Blenheim Crescent and Kensington Park Road, this home puts you right in the heart of the neighbourhood. On the doorstep, an array of coffee spots, restaurants and boutiques await. Enjoy the vantage point over the street below from the first-floor reception room and kitchen. A trio of sash windows floods the open-plan living space with natural light.

Interiors designed by Katrina Phillips are calming, with an urban edge. Elevated touches including a linear fireplace ledge and a working gas fire add a modern twist, while an Axel Vervoordt inspired plaster-effect wall gives a rustic, soothing finish. At the opposite end of the room, a burnished mirror splashback adds to the reclaimed feel and bounces light off the deVOL kitchen and Miele appliances.

The outside living space is just as impressive. A rare gem for a property in this neighbourhood, the lateral terrace is a private, hidden oasis. Designed by The Garden Builders, it includes a pergola wrapped in grape vines that makes for an inviting al fresco dining area. Note the remote control operated outdoor lighting, four outdoor speakers and the music amp. A full irrigation system and millboard decking ensures the space is low maintenance. There’s also a shed for handy storage.

Back inside, both bedrooms have a calming feel. The teal-toned principal is considered, with custom-made floor-to-ceiling and under bed storage and an in-built headboard. Painted in dark inky tones, the atmospheric guest bedroom could make an ideal study.

One of Notting Hill’s most sought-after streets, Blenheim Crescent is around the corner from Portobello Road. Spend mornings browsing the antiques stores or grabbing a coffee, a pastry and a sourdough loaf to go from Fabrique or Buns from Home. Come evening, catch a film at the Electric Cinema and debrief afterwards over dinner at Gold or Orasay.
