Kensington Church Street, London, W8

A beautifully reconfigured and fully refurbished two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment occupying the top floor of an elegant period conversion on one of Kensington's most coveted addresses. Completed in November 2025, the refurbishment has been executed to an exceptional standard throughout, delivering a home that is as practical as it is refined.

Extending to approximately 1,065 square feet, the apartment has been thoughtfully reconfigured to maximise both space and natural light — the results of which are immediately apparent upon entering.

The reception room is generous in proportion and exceptionally bright, benefitting from the elevated top-floor position that gives the apartment a sense of openness rarely found in London. The kitchen has been finished to a high specification and integrates seamlessly with the living space, making the apartment equally suited to everyday living and entertaining.

Both bedrooms are well proportioned doubles. The principal bedroom benefits from its own en-suite, whilst the family bathroom — featuring a walk-in shower — serves the second bedroom and guests. Storage has been considered throughout.

Situation

Church Close sits in the heart of Kensington, moments from Kensington Church Street and the open expanses of Kensington Gardens. The neighbourhood offers one of London's finest concentrations of independent boutiques, restaurants and cafes, whilst Notting Hill and Holland Park are within easy reach.

Notting Hill Gate and High Street Kensington Underground stations are both within comfortable walking distance, providing swift access to the West End, the City and beyond.

What the owners Loves:

I purchased this apartment and refurbished it from scratch — every detail was considered, and the result is a home I am genuinely proud of.

What strikes most people first is the light. Being on the top floor, the apartment enjoys an openness and brightness that is rare in London, and it changes beautifully throughout the day.

It is also remarkably quiet seeing as its located on Kensington Church Street. Kensington Gardens is on the doorstep, which means mornings feel unhurried — whether that is a walk through the park or simply looking out onto the treetops. Yet within minutes you have the full offer of Kensington and Notting Hill on your doorstep.

Everyone who has stayed here comments on the same thing — they cannot quite believe how peaceful it feels, and how easy it is to get anywhere from here.

Leaving will not be easy.

What the Agent Loves:

This beautifully refurbished top-floor apartment is one of those rare properties that works for almost anyone.

The reconfiguration has been done with real intelligence — the result is a home that feels considerably larger than its footprint suggests, with two proper sized double bedrooms, two bathrooms and a layout that simply flows. The light is exceptional for London, and the quiet of the top floor belies just how connected the location is.

Kensington Gardens is on the doorstep. The whole of Notting Hill and Kensington is within easy reach. And yet Church Close itself feels like a world apart.

Whether you are looking for a primary residence or a London base, this apartment delivers in a way that very few properties at this price point do.
