Kensington Artist’s House

Dating from 1860, this eccentric Victorian Artist’s home is a visually rich, character-filled film location, with unique architecture and opulent Victorian interiors.

The richly decorated rooms feel both luxurious and lived-in, while the blend of Victorian grandeur and Middle Eastern influences adds real versatility.

The standout Arab Hall features dramatic gold mosaics, intricate tiles, a central fountain, and soft, glowing light filtering from above

The artist’s studio spaces offer huge windows and an abundance of natural light.

Additional rooms featured include the Silk Room, the winter Studio, and the main Artist’s Studio, with its large windows overlooking the garden, itself a major feature.

Perfect for anything exotic, historical, or visually distinctive, it requires minimal set dressing.
