Designed to an impeccable standard with a vibrant colour palette, this is a high-end, unique home in West London’s leafy Ladbroke Grove. The bright velvet sofas in the communal area provide a vintage feel to the space and lovers of modernism will appreciate the impressive art pieces displayed throughout the home. Outside, there’s a brilliant blue patio that adds a great sense of light to its adjoining rooms – it also makes for an excellent spot to sip your morning coffee. When you’re not cooking up something tasty in the pink painted kitchen, you’ll be brunching in Notting Hill’s chic cafes, a ten-minute walk away – or dining on Michelin star cuisine in well-to-do Mayfair, reached in twenty minutes by car. The famous Portobello Road Market is less than a fifteen-minute stroll from your doorstep and Ladbroke Grove tube station, connecting you to all four corners of the capital, is reached in a mere ten minutes on foot.
