Leinster Square, Bayswater

On the second floor of a period conversion on Leinster Square, this two-bedroom apartment faces west across the private communal gardens. Ceilings of approximately 3.1 metres and full-height sash windows mean the rooms hold light through the afternoon in a way that is particular to this orientation.
The reception room is the heart of the apartment, a generous, well-proportioned space that opens into the kitchen, which has integrated appliances and enough room to cook properly. The layout works equally well for an evening in as for having people over.
The principal bedroom looks away from the street and has good storage throughout. The second bedroom sits comfortably as a guest room or a home office, depending on how you use the apartment.
Leinster Square sits at a point where Bayswater quietly gives way to Notting Hill. Westbourne Grove is a short walk north, with Granger and Co., Planet Organic, Prezzemolo and Vitale, Third Space and 1Rebel all within easy reach. The Queensway regeneration continues to draw attention to the area, and the Six Senses development is close. Hyde Park is at the end of the road. Bayswater and Queensway stations are both within a few minutes’ walk, with Paddington and its Elizabeth line connection a short ride away.
