Exceptional lateral apartment in the heart of West London

Upon entry, a central corridor leads through to a magnificent double reception room. Here, a fireplace unit separates the dining enclave from the sitting area. An imposing door leads from the dining area into the fitted kitchen, which features a central island and informal breakfast station.

There are four well-proportioned bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms. The principal suite further benefits from a dressing room. A utility room and a wine fridge complete the apartment.

Premium mod cons have been incorporated throughout. The two audio zones are equipped with Sonos Amp 2 and Apple Air streaming capabilities. The KNX system offers seamless lighting and heating control via wall-mounted tablets, while the recently replaced boiler allows for independent temperature control with KNX room controllers. Underfloor heating is a further benefit.

The apartment can be directly accessed via a lift from the ground floor. Finished to an excellent standard, the interiors boast an elegant, contemporary aesthetic. The thoughtful lateral layout enhances the sense of light and space, while state-of-the-art fittings add a touch of sophistication.

The property, a double-fronted stucco townhouse, dates back to the mid-Victorian era – these majestic villas were constructed between 1860 and 1880 by the renowned William and Francis Radford. It used to be the iconic Halcyon Hotel, which was highly popular among notable musicians and actors. The street on which it stands also has a rich history, for it was once home to aristocrats such as the Marquess of Londonderry and the Maharajah of Lahore.

Residents enjoy proximity to Notting Hill’s fantastic restaurants and shops, as well as the wonderful open spaces of Holland Park. Holland Park Underground Station is located a short walk away.
