Hereford Road, London, UK, W2

An exquisite four-bedroom house with a garden that has been extensively refurbished throughout in the heart of Notting Hill.

A stucco townhouse split over five floors comprising four bedrooms, three bathrooms and a beautiful double reception room with a feature fireplace and balcony.

The ground floor boats sociable open-plan spaces and a dual-aspect bespoke kitchen and dining room. To the back, the family snug. An intimate area with wraparound sofas, a glass-canopied ceiling and French doors leading to the terrace, with steps down to the walled garden.

The first floor has a more formal reception space with a separate music room. The second floor is occupied by a spacious master suite with bespoke fitted wardrobes and family-sized en-suite. Upstairs, a further two double bedrooms share another family-sized bathroom.

Hereford Road is located only moments from the excellent array of shops, restaurants and bars on Westbourne Grove and surrounding streets. Bayswater and Notting Hill Gate Underground Stations are within walking distance offering the Central, District and Circle lines.

Colourful Victorian terraces and large villas are typical of the homes in Notting Hill, a magnet for artists and the backdrop to Europe’s biggest carnival every summer.

There is so much to savour in this multicultural district — from the fashionable restaurants and bars, to the hip cafés and fascinating antiques stores, to the vibrant cinema, theatre and music scene.

For high-end shopping and designer clothes, Westbourne Grove is a top destination. For green space, Holland Park offers recreational and sports activities, and Kensington Gardens, one of London’s eight Royal Parks, is open to the public.

The area fosters a close-knit community, and local schools include Thomas Jones, Pembridge Hall and Westminster Academy.

Notting Hill Gate Tube lies on the border of Zone 1 and 2 and gives access to the Central, District and Circle lines. Also serving the area are Ladbroke Grove, Westbourne Park and Holland Park Underground stations.
