Lancaster Road, London, W11

A handsome frontage conceals inventive interiors at Lancaster Road – a home where creativity is key. Positioned along a row of colourful façades, this denim-blue, end-of-terrace townhouse commands attention.

Remodelled to lure in light and make the most of space, an immaculate ground floor features a layout attuned to family life. Double doors draw you in to a bright double reception room, where natural light and a neutral palette enhance lofty proportions. Two fireplaces are striking focal features to either side of the space – one traditional in style preserves a sense of period charm, while the other exudes a modern air. The rear sitting room transitions to a study, with skylights enlivening Cole & Son Safari wallpaper. From here, a wall of glazing gives way to a decked terrace.

Daily life unfolds across the lower ground floor, where an open-plan configuration allows light to travel throughout. The kitchen – all modern and minimalist with white cabinetry – centres around an imposing island with convenient integrated appliances. A considered aesthetic continues across the dining area, while twin columns frame views of the subtly separated lounge. Brightness permeates through glass spanning the width of the room, leading out to a walled garden; half patio, half green space.

Crowning the top of the home, a principal bedroom suite of impressive proportions awaits. Light makes a feature of a deep yellow wall, with muted tones elsewhere maintaining a sense of calm. A dedicated dressing area complete with bespoke storage leads to the en suite bathroom, fitted with a walk-in shower and bathtub. Colour is used to striking effect through three bedrooms across the floor below, each drawn with a sense of individuality. A family bathroom and shower room serve these, the latter of which hosts a sauna.

The home’s pièce de résistance – a decked roof terrace with sweeping views of Notting Hill’s skyline. Take in the vistas from a seat on the deck or sink into the built-in hot tub.

Lancaster Road has enviable proximity to the best eateries, amenities and transport links west London has to offer. Grab a pastry from Butter Bakery Bar, then wander up to explore the buzz of Golborne Road. Make your way down to Portobello Road’s coveted food market for a taste of global cuisine, before browsing antiques and vintage treasures. Stop in at the Electric Cinema, then complete the evening with one of the fine-dining options on your doorstep. Choose from Dorian, The Ledbury or Caractère. With Westbourne Park tube station just a short walk away, there’s easy access into central London and beyond.
