Flat to rent in Armstrong, Porchester Road, Bayswater W2

Behind a striking red-brick exterior, exquisite modern design and aesthetic persuasion awaits. Alongside contemporary interiors – a 24-hour concierge, plus a lift.

An innovatively inverted home, Crittall glass doors open into the social heart of the apartment – an expansive open-plan kitchen and reception room. Making the most of its fifth-floor positioning, a striking skylight illuminates the room’s sleek lines and poured latex floors.

A spectacle of reflection and materiality, a hand-crafted copper kitchen makes a bold statement. Backdropped by a luxe marble feature wall, two conjoined islands – one of which rotates – fashion sleek spaces to cook or dine. Echoing the copper tones, while south-facing atelier windows come styled with cushions to create cosy nooks.

Downstairs, spacious sleeping quarters are dispersed across the fourth floor. A haven of minimalist serenity, the principal bedroom suite features leather parquet flooring and considerately placed skylights. Positioned at the room’s entrance, a dedicated dressing space leads to an immaculately-designed en-suite bathroom. Revel in the Philippe Starck steam shower or indulge in long soaks in the marble bathtub. Two further bedrooms share a stylish yet serene atmosphere, each with sleek en-suite bathrooms.

At the top of the home, ascend a spiral staircase to the roof terrace. From the cedar-clad hot tub, take in panoramic views of the London skyline. With studio-grade sound insulation, underfloor heating and air conditioning throughout, this home has been designed with year-round socialising in mind.
