Broadwalk Court, 79 Palace Gardens Terrace, Kensington, London W8

Duplex flat with architect-designed interiors in an iconic Art Deco building close to Kensington Gardens

Stepping into the flat on the seventh floor, the entrance hall leads through to the principal bedroom suite. This includes a bedroom, a bathroom and a walk-in wardrobe.

The penthouse floor above is occupied by a spacious reception room, which includes an open-plan kitchen with a dining area, as well a separate seating area. French doors on three sides open onto terraces and a balcony, while the triple aspect fills this space with light.

The flat’s interiors were designed by influential Belgian architects Claire Bataille and Paul Ibens. Wooden floors and units add to the sense of contemporary sophistication, and are all presented in good condition.

The flat includes a well-proportioned roof terrace with wooden decking and seating. There is also a balcony, which together provide beautiful views over much of the London skyline.

Broadwalk Court was built between 1934-35 by the architect Robert Atkinson, who was known for his Art Deco designs. This building is a perfect example of the Streamline Moderne style, which evokes the ocean liners of the interwar period.

These days, Broadwalk Court offers both a porter and a lift. From here, Notting Hill Gate underground station is close, while the many restaurants and shops of Notting Hill are also nearby. Furthermore, the open spaces of Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park are a short walk away.
