Orsett Terrace W2

A rare lateral apartment within Orsett House, a Grade II listed Italianate villa on Orsett Terrace, blending grand period architecture with effortless, everyday design. Set within a fully detached building and enjoying a true quadruple aspect, the home is flooded with natural light and framed by serene garden vistas, made all the more dramatic by 3m ceilings, elegant cornicing and original panelling beneath the bay windows.

The heart of the home is a beautifully executed, semi-open plan kitchen: German cabinetry, Carrara marble worksurfaces, and a statement island deep enough for a proper breakfast bar. Miele and Bosch appliances are seamlessly integrated, while a separate larder/laundry area keeps life running smoothly. Glazed doors lead directly to a private terrace, perfect for morning coffee, a quick midweek supper, or a weekend barbecue.

The bay-fronted living room sets an easy, sociable tone with a defined dining nook in the curved bay, a bespoke media/sound-bar zone for movie nights, and a refined built-in ribbon fireplace. Quietly luxurious finishes continue into the principal suite where a second grand bay with secondary glazing creates a calm backdrop for a semi open-plan, ergonomically designed walk-in wardrobe with floor-to-ceiling storage. The ensuite is hotel-calibre: Double vanity, generous walk-in shower, large-format tiles and abundant concealed storage. A well-proportioned second double bedroom also features full-height wardrobes, served by a stylish family bathroom with tub and striking marble tiling. Throughout, limewashed oak floors, thoughtful joinery and abundant storage deliver a home that works as beautifully as it look, equally suited to a bachelor, bachelorette or anyone who values easy, elevated living.

Location is outstanding. Paddington is moments away (Elizabeth, Bakerloo, Circle, District and mainline services) with Royal Oak (Circle & Hammersmith & City) equally close, placing the West End, the City and Heathrow within easy reach. Westbourne Grove sits around the corner with independent cafés and restaurants, Sunday in Brooklyn, Granger & Co., and Beam, while fitness fans have Psycle and the Porchester Leisure Centre nearby. Waitrose is moments away for grocery convenience. Weekends invite strolls along the Grand Union Canal to Little Venice, runs across Hyde Park, and the boutiques of Notting Hill and Marylebone just a short hop in either direction. Finally, moments' walk away is The Whiteley featuring world-class amenities including a Third Space gym, an Everyman Cinema, high-end dining, and the UK’s first Six Senses hotel and spa.
