3 bed property for sale

Kensington Park Road, Notting Hill, London W11

Description

In the same ownership for 46 years, this unusually wide house offers generous rooms, excellent natural light and a substantial rear garden in the heart of Notting Hill. Extending to approximately 2,328 sq ft, the three-bedroom property is arranged across four floors and presents an exciting opportunity for its next owner to update the interiors.

The raised ground floor is designed for entertaining, with a large kitchen adjoining the dining room. Its east-to-west orientation allows light to travel through the house throughout the day, while the broader-than-average proportions give the principal rooms an appealing sense of space. To the rear, the garden extends to approximately 50 ft, a particularly valuable feature in this central London setting.

A handsome drawing room occupies the first floor and benefits from the width of the building, providing ample room for several seating areas. Two bedrooms and two bathrooms are arranged across the uppermost floor.

The lower-ground level has been used as a self-contained apartment by the current owners for more than 20 years. It could continue to provide independent accommodation for guests, older children or staff, or be reincorporated into the main house. Held under a single freehold title but currently subject to two council tax accounts, the arrangement gives the next owner considerable flexibility.

Kensington Park Road runs through the centre of Notting Hill, placing the house within easy reach of the neighbourhood’s independent shops, cafés and restaurants. The boutiques and antiques arcades of Portobello Road are close by, as are the restaurants of Westbourne Grove and the open spaces of Holland Park. Notting Hill Gate Underground station provides Central, Circle and District line services, while several well-regarded schools can be found in the surrounding area.
