Occupying the first and second floors of a handsome Victorian terrace on Westbourne Grove, this duplex apartment offers 1,198 sq ft of well-proportioned living arranged over two levels. High ceilings, large sash windows and original decorative mouldings give an immediately uplifting, characterful living space while a full-width principal bedroom and a well-sized second bedroom provide comfortable family accommodation. A snug/study on the upper landing creates a useful home-office or reading area.
The location is a major draw: independent shops, cafés and restaurants line Westbourne Grove, Portobello Road and Hyde Park are within easy reach, and Notting Hill Gate and Westbourne Park stations give swift central London access. The property combines village-like street appeal with the energy and convenience of a prime W11 address, and nearby schools include an Outstanding-rated primary and several reputable independents.
Practical points are straightforward and should be weighed: the flat is leasehold with about 115 years remaining, council tax is described as quite expensive, and the building is solid-brick construction with assumed lack of cavity insulation. The area records higher crime levels than average for the city, and any purchaser should factor refurbishment or upgrading (insulation, services check) into their budget.
This duplex will suit a buyer seeking period character with substantial internal space in a top central-London location — ideal for families wanting proximity to schools and parks, or professionals wanting a stylish, well-located home with potential to personalise. Its generous floorplate, ceiling heights and natural light are genuine strengths; costs related to tenure, tax and possible retrofit work are the main practical considerations.
