Kensington High Street, London, W8

Hornton Court is a classic red-brick apartment block that puts you on the doorstep to High Street Kensington and W8’s enviable offerings. Located on the fourth floor, this two-bedroom apartment has been newly renovated with a keen eye for interior design. Across its spacious footprint, expect flawless materials and sleek technology bound by reams of natural light.

Take the lift to the fourth floor and enter a bright entrance hallway. Dark wooden parquet floors run underfoot, while vast interior windows invite you into the heart of the home. Glass-fronted double doors open into the reception and dining room, where soaring ceilings and pale walls afford a voluminous feel to the space. Sunlight filters in through a sash window, illuminating the carefully-considered furnishings: designer lighting, modern artwork, a sleek circular dining table and relaxed tuxedo sofa.

Through an archway, the kitchen is a masterpiece in marble. Striking stone worktops and splashbacks frame the room, complemented by dark wood and frosted-glass cabinets, plus neatly integrated Miele appliances.

Two bedrooms maintain the home’s calming atmosphere and refined styling. The first bedroom is all pale tones and soft sunlight, with fitted wood wardrobes and a smart upholstered bed. A second bedroom matches this minimalist aesthetic, with a Crittall-style door leading to an en suite bathroom. An oversized walk-in shower is wrapped in bold marble and accented with gilded hardware. A further bathroom, crafted with the same materials, features an indulgent bathtub.
