Flat 3, 30 Arundel Gardens, London, W11 2LB

Where creative energy meets considered design, behind one of Notting Hill’s most beautiful garden squares. A distinctive home shaped by light, space and an unmistakable sense of individuality.

There is something immediately unexpected about this apartment.

Set within one of Notting Hill’s handsome period streets, it has been reimagined with the openness and informality of a New York loft, while retaining the scale and character of its original setting.

High ceilings and generous proportions give the main reception room a real sense of volume, with natural light moving easily through the open-plan space.

The bespoke kitchen sits comfortably within the room rather than being separated from it, creating a home designed as much for living and entertaining as it is for looking good.

The bedroom looks out across the communal gardens, with wooden shutters framing the greenery beyond, while a staircase leads up to a generous walk-in wardrobe.

Perhaps the most distinctive detail is the glass-ceilinged, spa-style bathroom pod, positioned within the apartment and creating an unexpected sense of openness and light.

Its translucent enclosure becomes part of the architecture of the living space, giving the bathroom a sculptural quality without feeling enclosed.

The property also comes with a share of the private enclosed garden, which opens into the wider communal gardens, an unusually generous amenity in this part of west London.

There is a certain creative pedigree here, too: The apartment was previously owned by one half of The Chemical Brothers, adding another layer to its story.

Outside, Arundel Gardens offers the best of Notting Hill: A quiet, leafy setting with the energy of the neighbourhood just beyond it.

The surrounding streets are lined with independent cafés, restaurants, bars and boutiques, while Portobello Road, Westbourne Grove and Golborne Road each bring their own distinct character, from antiques and vintage finds to food, fashion and design.

There is a real sense of community here, shaped by the area’s garden squares and village-like streets, yet this remains central London, with excellent transport links close by.

It is a combination that makes Notting Hill so enduringly appealing.
