1A, Bridstow Place, London, W2 5AG

Bridstow Place sits back from the Westbourne Grove bustle – close to the essentials, insulated enough to instill calm.

This newly built house is immediately distinct on the street’s cottage-lined row, with tall Crittall glazing and a deep wooden door.

Inside, five meticulously designed floors by architecture studio Moreno Masey are seamlessly connected by a passenger lift.

The kitchen sits at ground level – shaker cabinetry in warm greige, marble worktops and a full Miele suite with double ovens.

Three glass pendants hang above the integrated breakfast bar; herringbone floors run below. Descend a floor and the house reveals more intimate social spaces.

A panelled reception room centres around a wide inset fireplace, backlit shelving running the full width of the media wall.

Next to it, a snug in deep raspberry red offers versatility as a study or occasional guest bedroom. Below, the basement level follows the aesthetic theme.

The cinema room is properly kitted out – framed acoustic panels and a large built-in screen – while a gym sits adjacent.

The first floor holds three bedrooms, two with en suites – the third served by a shower room –and all with thoughtful built-in storage.

Above, the entire second floor is occupied by the principal suite.

The dressing room sits neatly behind the sleeping space; elsewhere, Crittall doors open the length of the room onto the south-facing roof terrace.

The en suite bathroom sits to the opposite side of the level, complete with a freestanding tub and separate shower. Garage parking is included, with EV charging.

Bridstow Place carries a quietness that’s rare this close to central London. A short, cottage-lined backstreet off Chepstow Road, it sits at the meeting point of Notting Hill and Westbourne Grove.

For relaxation, the Six Senses Spa at the nearby Whiteley’s development will be the UK’s first.

Take a stroll around Kensington Gardens, brunch at Beam, then browse the rails at Reformation and Sézane. Round off the day with dinner at The Barbury or Endo Kazutoshi’s sushi hotspot Sumi.

For drinks, there’s local favourite The Cow or The Westbourne – both just minutes from your door. Royal Oak - 12 mins Notting Hill Gate - 12 mins
