Having grown up in Sussex, in a country cottage “with low beams, little windows and lots of heavy chintz”, designer Matilda Goad spent her twenties living happily in the heart of Notting Hill.
She and husband Tom, founder of building and design company Blockhouse Build, were ready to upsize in 2018 and they wanted to stay in the area. Kensal Green was admittedly further than planned, but Goad loves the sense of community.
