Stylish apartment in Notting Hill
Interior designer Jenny Catlin is selling her stylish, light-filled duplex apartment in London's Westbourne Grove for £1.5m


A stunning duplex apartment owned by interior designer, Jenny Catlin, has just gone on the market. Her style is quirky and edgy and she practices what she preaches, which can be clearly seen in her flat in Westbourne Grove, W.2. 'I design for people who want to be individuals', she says. Catlin loves re-configuring rooms and floor plans and she has turned her property, which she bought seven years ago as a four bedroom apartment, into a stunning two bedroom home. *Search properties for sale in London, W2 The most unusual features of her apartment is the kitchen, which has no cupboards because she hates them and her small office, which she has concealed behind the bookcases in the living room, which slide together. She has also put in leather curtains and a limestone floor injected with resin to make it look like beaten leather. The apartment has a 27 feet long reception room with fabulous uplighting and a top floor bedroom suite with roof terrace. It is for sale for pounds £1.5 million through Faron Sutaria.
