Notting Hill mews house to rent made famous in Paddington and The Italian Job
If you've ever dreamt of living on a real-life film set, this stunning Notting Hill home will certainly tick that box for you. The four-bedroom London home in the exclusive cobbled mews of Denbigh Close is now available to rent. And to whomever its lucky new resident will be, there's plenty of British film history to be enjoyed right on your doorstep.
Listing agents Knight Frank reveal that the charming close has been the location for a number of famous films. Production took place there for The Italian Job, the 1969 film starring Michael Caine. His character of Charlie Croker lived in these exact mews towards the end of the road – with this new property situated at the other end.
And right at the corner of the mews is the famous Alice's Antiques shop, which was reimagined in the Paddington films as Gruber's Antiques. So with all of this glamorous history just a hop, skip and jump from the front door, does the property match up inside?
Situated immediately off the iconic Portobello Road, you can't really get a more central Notting Hill location from which to explore the many markets, shops and restaurants that the plush London area has to offer.
The Denbigh Close home is located at the very end of the mews, and while it maintains all of its charming central London character on the outside, the inside has been turned into a sleek, modern haven away from the buzz of the city.
With four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a further three ensuite shower rooms laid out across four levels, there's more than plenty of space for a family.
The primary bedroom on the first floor has a unique bioethanol fireplace to help you stay cosy on chilly evenings, as well as large windows to let in plenty of light.
But that's not all you'll find within the 2,531 sq ft of this seriously luxurious home. If you want to retreat from the tasty restaurants on Portobello Road, the open-plan kitchen should provide the ideal place in which to make a home-cooked meal. It's functional and stylish, with slick white and wooden cupboards, white granite countertops and integrated, Wi-Fi-enabled Miele appliances.
There are also two reception rooms in which to relax and unwind – one being a TV room, if you ever want to catch a glimpse of your new home on the big screen in Paddington or The Italian Job!
The Notting Hill mews house has been finished in a very modern style throughout, with gleaming white walls adorning most rooms, and bathrooms fitted from floor-to-ceiling in a sleek black and white marble. But to keep things cosy, some rooms have underfloor heating, too.
Other highlights include a utility room, a stylish gym space and a special wine wall at the foot of the stairs. But when it comes to selling points, nothing beats the fact that this property also comes with a private roof terrace, located alongside the bedroom on the fourth floor.
Elizabeth Holder, head of Notting Hill lettings at Knight Frank, comments: 'Denbigh Close is without doubt a hidden gem in Notting Hill with its unique blend of seclusion and Portobello Road vibrancy. This house caters to those seeking a sophisticated London living experience, bespoke design, top-end finishes, and the additional luxury of a roof terrace to watch the world go by.'
Prospective tenants are required to pay a pretty penny for all this home has to offer, and in a central, and much sought-after, London location. The Denbigh Close mews house is available for rental via Knight Frank, with an asking price of £17,000 per month, equivalent to £3,923.07 per week.
