4 bed terraced house to rent

Wallingford Avenue, London W10

Wallingford Avenue sits in the quieter stretch of residential North Kensington. A street that’s settled without feeling sleepy, runs of traditional redbrick homes line the road, all original bay windows and plane trees overhead.

Inside, the ground floor opens in one long, connected run. Crittall glazing provides a preview into the home’s heart: A bespoke kitchen that uplifts in colour and character. Pistachio green tones thread through the marble, across a striking central island and sweeping from countertop to splashback. The bay window has been reconfigured as a built-in banquette, a peaceful spot that caters to morning or evening affairs. Colour continuity maintains connection with the reception room beyond – an exceptionally bright setting courtesy of glazing overhead and to the rear. Wooden floors carry through the dining area to the lounge, where full-height Crittall doors fold back to dissolve the boundary between inside and out.

Outdoors, a landscaped garden is pristine and peaceful. The immediate area is given over to a decked terrace, a welcome extension of the interiors in warmer months. Rows of trees line the walled lawn, with a summer house at the rear – complete with a shower room – offering a self-contained space to work, create or house visiting guests.

Upstairs, three bedrooms sit across the first and second floor, each with its own character. The top floor principal is quiet and neutral – textured wallpaper, eaves storage and a view across the rooftops. Its en suite bathroom is equally considered, with white veined stone wrapping around the room and shower. On the first floor, the guest bedroom suite is styled in soft teal tones, with a shower room clad in deep geometric tiles. The third bedroom is served by a spacious family bathroom, featuring a freestanding tub and terrazzo tiles underfoot.
