Decorating Pembridge Gardens

Pembridge Gardens is a distinguished street on the border of Bayswater and Notting Hill, lined with imposing late-Victorian terraces and substantial mansion blocks that were developed from the 1860s onwards as part of the area's rapid residential expansion. The street's architecture ranges from stucco-fronted terraced houses to red-brick and terracotta mansion blocks with elaborate decorative facades, many now converted into sought-after flats. Its position close to Notting Hill Gate and Kensington Gardens makes it one of the most desirable addresses in W2.

Pembridge Gardens presents decorators with a variety of substrates, from painted stucco terraces to unpainted red-brick and terracotta mansion blocks where common parts and entrance halls are the primary focus for interior painting and decoration. Mansion block common areas typically require durable, washable interior paint systems that meet building management standards while maintaining a high decorative finish.
