Located on the fourth floor of the prestigious Allen House development in Kensington, this brand new two-bedroom apartment spans 1,072 sq ft and has been thoughtfully interior designed by Residence One with an emphasis on warm earthy tones, soft textures, and calming finishes.
The open-plan living and dining area is bathed in natural light, framed by a set of striking full-height curved arch windows that open onto a dual-aspect balcony which is also accessible from the second bedroom, offering the perfect spot for morning coffee or evening drinks.
The bespoke kitchen is finished to a superb standard, with oak veneer base units, liquid metal-effect upper cabinets, and integrated LED lighting. A Calacatta porcelain slab serves as both the worktop and splashback, paired with a full suite of integrated Miele appliances for a seamless, modern aesthetic.
The principal bedroom suite includes a generous walk-in wardrobe and a beautifully appointed en suite bathroom, finished in Neolith Calacatta Gold porcelain to the floors and shower enclosure, Savannah polished limestone to the walls and vanity tops, and a bespoke timber veneer vanity unit with reeded antique detailing.
With its generous proportions, timeless palette, and carefully curated design, Apartment 401 offers a harmonious blend of luxury and comfort in one of London’s most sought-after postcodes.
