Positioned at the intersection of Portobello and Golborne Road – a community-orientated enclave brimming with independent businesses – this Victorian townhouse was expertly reconfigured with modern industrialist design by Cubic Studios. The material palette of this two-bedroom duplex apartment balances the urban with the natural; concrete, iron and copper are mixed with softer woods and interior planting.
The reception room makes an inviting first impression as you enter from the street. Warm timber floors are stylishly offset with pale grey walls. A hallway leads into the kitchen, framed on one side by full-height glazing that overlooks an exterior void. The modish culinary setting is crafted with an invigorating set of materials. At its centre, a large stone island is complete with an integrated stove and sink. Rustic wooden panels are laid across a wall, punctuated by a corrugated metal hatch which reveals a concrete-topped preparation area.
The staircase, which is artfully finished with twisted steel balustrades, descends to the lower-ground floor. At its heart, a decked patio garden is a quiet suntrap framed on one side by a verdant living wall. Reams of natural light are channeled into the surrounding bedrooms, with sliding doors that diffuse interior and exterior boundaries. The two bedrooms are calming in tone, served by striking en suite bathrooms that showcase exposed copper pipes and sleek granite tiles.
Location
Portobello Road is the beating heart of Notting Hill, famed for its wealth of vintage boutiques, world-class eateries and market stalls selling fresh produce. At the top end however, is its quieter counterpart – Golborne Road, a street packed with character and community. With a rich Moroccan and Portuguese population, this area is famed for its fantastic cafes and restaurants – namely the Hassan fish stall and Lisboa bakery. Source reclaimed antiques from Rellick or Trove or check out social enterprise Goldfinger for bespoke furniture. Enjoy an evening of live music at Laylow and be home in a matter of minutes.
