Durham Terrace, Bayswater, Westminster, W2

Outside, a quintessential stock brick townhouse is indicative of the area’s esteemed architectural heritage. Inside, a lateral one-bedroom apartment has been crafted for modern city living. Ascend to the property’s first floor, which opens into a spacious open-plan kitchen and reception room. Whitewashed walls are grounded by dark wood floors, while a pair of floor-to-ceiling French windows flood the space with sunlight. Beyond the doors, a private balcony is framed with ornate iron fencing.

The interior can be delineated between living and dining spots, backdropped by a decorative fireplace surround and eye-catching Vertigo pendant light. The culinary setting is minimalist: glossy stone worktops and pale cabinets are accentuated with black hardware, and wooden floating shelves introduce a rustic edge.

The home’s contemporary character ensues in the principal bedroom, situated beyond the entranceway. Built-in wardrobes are a neat storage solution. Next door, the bathroom is wrapped in smooth tiles and features a sleek bathtub.
