Dawson Place, Notting Hill, London, W2

Few properties in London offer what Flat 4, 14 Dawson Place delivers: the grandeur of a William Radford period villa, the seclusion of a private wrap-around garden, and interiors finished to a standard that would satisfy the most discerning eye. Set on one of Notting Hill’s finest tree-lined streets, this is a home that holds its own in the very best company.

Spanning 1,749 sq.ft. across two beautifully conceived levels, the maisonette opens on the raised ground floor into a sweeping kitchen and reception room where 3.5 metre ceiling heights lend the space an almost theatrical sense of volume. Light pours in from multiple aspects, catching the herringbone floors and bouncing off surfaces of considerable quality. The kitchen is fitted throughout with Gaggenau appliances and finished with Italian marble - a configuration as suited to a quiet breakfast as it is to serious entertaining.

Descend to the garden level and the mood shifts: calmer, more private, utterly considered. The principal suite is a genuinely generous retreat - a space designed not merely to sleep in but to withdraw to. The bedhead wall is dressed in bespoke hand-embroidered wallpaper - a singular piece of craft that anchors the room and sets a tone of quiet, considered luxury from the moment you enter. The dressing room is beautifully fitted, and the ensuite bathroom, finished in Italian stone, extends to a private steam room - an indulgence that transforms the morning routine into something altogether more considered. Two further bedrooms, each with their own distinct character and outlook over the garden, share the level alongside a second reception room that opens directly to the private garden. With 3.5 bathrooms across the property, practicality is never compromised.

Outside, the private wrap-around garden faces South-West and catches the sun from morning until dusk - a rare luxury in central London. The decked terrace off the raised ground floor is perfectly positioned for al fresco dining, while the garden below invites something more languid. Residents also enjoy access to Pembridge Square, the exclusive private garden available to only a select group of neighbouring properties and one of Notting Hill’s most treasured and protected green spaces.

The location requires little introduction. Dawson Place sits at the quiet heart of prime Notting Hill, moments from the independent boutiques and restaurants of Westbourne Grove, and a short walk from Notting Hill Gate. Kensington Gardens is close at hand for weekend mornings, while Pembridge Hall and Wetherby - among London’s most sought-after prep schools - are practically on the doorstep. For travel, the Central, District and Circle Lines, together with the Heathrow Express from Paddington, place the whole of the city within easy reach.

Available with share of freehold, this is a property that offers the full breadth of what a London home can be: architectural distinction, exceptional interiors, private outdoor space, and a neighbourhood that never goes out of fashion.
