Flooring in Kensington and Chelsea
In Kensington and Chelsea we are most often asked for rear and lower ground floor extensions. The south of the borough is known for tall stucco terraces around garden squares, red brick mansion blocks in Earl's Court and Chelsea, and cobbled mews. Further north, Notting Hill has painted Victorian terraces and villas, while North Kensington mixes smaller Victorian houses with post-war estates.
