About this property

Comfort in Kensington, by Veeve

A charming and comfortable terrace home with vibrant vintage interiors furnished in an easy, modern style, and space for 6 guests. Situated on a quiet leafy street in West Kensington within a short distance of West Kensington underground, buzzing Hammersmith and scenic walks along the Thames.

Access up a small flight of steps up to the front door in the style of a classic London town house.

LIVING AREA
First on the left as you enter the ground floor of this plush four storey house, is a large, beautifully furnished living room. Three large sofas, two fireplaces and a flat screen TV provide ultimate comfort for an evening in, whilst the two big windows either side offering views of the street and garden ensure the room is a bright and airy place to relax in the day too. Well-stocked bookshelves and handsome wood furniture provide a traditional English feel, whilst splashes of teal and mauve upholstery and colourful art above the fireplaces give it a modern flair.

STUDY
A small tranquil room set back on the ground floor with a desk and nice garden views.

KITCHEN/DINING AREA
Downstairs on the lower ground floor is a large open-plan room with French patio doors opening on to the garden behind. The kitchen area includes a big fridge/freezer, an electric induction hob, oven, dishwasher and a spacious kitchen island with two chairs. White units and marble surfaces create a sleek, modern look. Towards the garden entrance is a large polished wood table with chairs upholstered in royal blue.

UTILITY
Next door is a small, compact utility room, complete with washing machine, sink and WC.

GARDEN
The garden offers a relaxing haven at the back of the house. Two steps up lead you to a raised patio with a table and seating for 6. The space is ensconced by a trellis fence and bordered by plants.

MAIN BATHROOM
Upstairs on the first floor is a modern-furnished bathroom with bath and shower, WC and sink.

FIRST BEDROOM
A double bed with lovely views onto the garden creates a luxury first-floor bedroom. There are two large wardrobes and a chest of drawers offering a good amount of storage space.

SECOND BEDROOM
A king-sized double with a blue/grey colour theme, this room also offers ample storage space with a wall-length three door wardrobe and chest of drawers. The mirrored doors on the wardrobes and two windows with lovely street views create a wonderfully light and airy room. Quirky book shelves and the antique drawers create a smart vintage look.

MASTER BEDROOM
Up another flight of stairs on the second floor in a large attic space, is the master bedroom. Two windows and light-coloured interiors brighten the space. There is a king-sized bed, a wardrobe and drawers.

ENSUITE BATHROOM
Next to the master bedroom is a bathroom with elegant marble fittings. A vintage bath with hand-held shower head is accompanied by a double sink, WC and large attic window to let in the light.

Home Truths:
No smoking, pets or parties! Steps up to porch and four floors within means unsuitable for those with limited access. There is also a camp bed available for temporary visitors. The homeowners' cleaner, Magda, comes every other Thursday at midday for 4 hours and will let herself in.

Kensington townhouse
Charming walk up with lots of light and good bedroom layout for privacy. Some things should be addressed: lack of microwave and conventional coffee maker; bathtub/shower combinations dangerously slippery; and inadequate space for guests to hang/store clothes because of locked spaces and owner belongings.

Excellent property with ample space for a family.
Excellent property with ample space for a family. Good location with strong WiFi. As it was December, enjoyed the gas fireplace in the drawing room. Large kitchen and dining area were ideal for cooking and eating in.

Why they chose this property

Kensington is a genteel district in one of the grandest boroughs in London, The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. It’s home to many of the city’s most significant museums, including the Natural History Museum, the Victoria & Albert Museum, and the recently reopened Design Museum. Not only does the neighbourhood have many elegant shops, churches and parks for visitors to enjoy, Kensington High Street is a hub for music and journalism too. The Daily Mail – amongst other newspapers – have their offices here, as do the UK offices of major music empires, like EMI, Universal and Sony.
