Terraced house to rent in Hewer Street, North Kensington, Kensington & Chelsea W10

Originally restored by developers cvp Designs, this sprawling space in a former Victorian dairy factory was primed for a new lease of life. Later reimagined by Otten + Partners Architects, an effortless contemporary style now characterises its two floors.

Through a private entrance – a space designed with its roots in mind. Retaining hints of the home’s industrial heritage, polished concrete floors and industrial lights draw a considered canvas across the home. Found on the ground floor, an interplay of light and dark tones distinguishes a striking double reception room. Naturally bright, one half is all pristine white walls with a triple height void that stretches up to a glass-canopied roof. Matte black paint adorns the opposite side – sheltered from light above to create an idyllic TV nook.

Crittall screens connect the open-plan kitchen and dining room, an uplifting area to cook or dine. Glossy cabinets meld with white walls to create a uniform finish, while sleek black counters bring depth to the space.

Upstairs, a minimalist feel continues across two spacious bedroom suites. The material palette takes a softer turn in the principal bedroom, with light wooden floors and soft grey hues. A Crittall door separates the en suite bathroom, where a bathtub and walk-in shower await. Arranged at the opposite end, a guest bedroom suite is served by a sophisticated shower room.
