Studio to rent

Sutherland Place, Bayswater, London W2

Sutherland Place is a charming residential road, boasting rows of pastel-toned period architecture. On the first floor of this Grade ii-listed townhouse is a studio apartment that makes a bold impression. Its heritage roportions have been brought to light with layers of texture and colour.

The home is bathed in natural light; its lateral footprint has an uplifting feel. Full-height sash windows are framed with botanic-patterned curtains, echoed in the palm tree mirror. A reading area is paired with an Akari floor lamp. Beyond an archway, the wide corridor is imaginative in form and function. Taking on the appearance of a dressing room, a row of leopard-print wardrobe doors conceal a kitchenette. Its ergonomic yet modish, complete with a marble worktop, mirrored splashback and brass accents. Opposite, rattan-panelled doors slide open to reveal an indulgent bathtub, set beneath Uchiwa fan lamps. There’s a cloakroom too, finished in a stylish inky hue.

Location:
Sutherland Place is lined with paintbox-toned houses and leafy trees, caught between Notting Hill hotspots Talbot Road and Westbourne Grove. Brunch at Granger & Co. And Beam, pick up groceries from Daylesford Organic or head to one of the several wellness spots: Bodyism, Barrecore and Psycle to name a few. The iconic Portobello Road is a short walk away, for vintage shopping and films at the Electric Cinema. Come evening, Michelin-starred The Ledbury beckons.
