Argyll Place, London, W10

Set on a quiet, tree-lined avenue backdropped by Kensington Memorial Park, Argyll Place’s privileged position imbues its interiors with a rare sense of openness. Behind the modern façade, 3,300 sq ft unfolds with effortless flow across five generous floors.

Recently reconfigured, the ground level living space is equal parts refined and functional. A Martin Moore kitchen anchors the setting; marble splashbacks catch the light, while a Nebula quartz island invites conversation or cooking. Every culinary demand is catered to here; make use of the Lacanche cooker, Sub-Zero fridge and dual Siemens dishwashers. When the weather calls for it, full-height sliding doors peel away to a landscaped garden.

Above, the first floor lends itself to more formal occasions. To one side, deep navy hues adorn an intimate media room, a versatile space equally suited to a study or gym. Doors draw back from here to a bright double drawing room; step out to the terrace to overlook the park’s changing seasons.

Upstairs, elegance meets ease in the principal bedroom suite. Soft neutrals and bespoke wardrobes instill a sense of calm, while multiple windows frame verdant views. Its en suite is a statement in slate grey, fitted with a freestanding bathtub and walk-in rainfall shower. One further bedroom sits on this floor, while two bedrooms above embody an inside-out feel, each opening to private terraces. Perfect for an au pair or extra privacy, the lower ground floor features two additional bedrooms, a private patio, utility room and family bathroom.

The home also offers secure underground parking for two cars, complete with an electric charging port. Discreetly integrated into coffered ceilings, a natural airflow system ensures a constant stream of fresh air, while solar panels feed into the home’s electricity supply.

There’s a welcoming, laid-back feel to North Kensington. Within walking distance of both Golborne and Portobello Road, there’s an array of independent businesses on the doorstep. Shop for supplies at Golborne Deli & Wine Store, book lunch at Straker’s or enjoy pastries to go from Lisboa. Spend weekends browsing the neighbourhood’s renowned antique and vintage stalls. For luxury shopping, The Village at Westfield is close by – stop for a drink at the White City branch of Soho House.
