A Charming Garden Apartment in North Kensington

Among the grand Victorian villas in North Kensington stands a row of Victorian townhouses that have been turned into apartments. The garden floor of one of these historic townhouses is home to this charming three-bedroom apartment.

In recent years, the apartment has undergone a renovation, respecting the 19th-century period features while also adding a glazed extension in the back that floods the interior space with natural light and gives access to the apartment’s private garden.
