Behind a beautifully renovated townhouse facade lies an interior that is bright and beautiful in equal measures. The living room has the feel of a contemporary art gallery, with high ceilings, parquet flooring and striking pieces on the wall. Although saying that, we haven't been to a gallery with such cute pastel-pink, tufted furnishings. 

The kitchen is just as striking, thanks to the large windows, the flurry of house plants and handsome marble surfaces. So striking in fact, that we crowned it 'kitchen of the year' on Instagram. As well as letting in copious amounts of natural light, the French door also leads out to a charming garden space with some seating for warm evenings. 

Upstairs, the bedrooms are both large and equipped with regal beds, while there's even a balcony space looking out over the rooftops of East London and the distant skyscrapers in The City. However, you don't even have to go far to find things to do in the neighbourhood. Just around the corner, there's the Castle Cinema — an Art Deco building reopened after a local crowdfunding campaign — and Chatsworth Market, which runs every Sunday with a great range of independent stalls.

The Knowledge

When it comes to London neighbourhoods, some visitors are guilty of overlooking Farringdon, which is a pretty big sin in our books — not only is it excellently located between the bright lights of the city centre and the trendier East, but it's full of exciting restaurants, interesting museums and industrial architecture. It's also home to effortlessly cool apartments, such as this one.

In the open-concept living-kitchen area, light flows through the space thanks to windows on either end. The design is definitely Scandi in influence — clock the clean lines and preference for wood surfaces — but the abstract artwork stops it from feeling too identikit. Rather pleasingly for a home for two, the cobalt kitchen has a wealth of sleek surface space for whipping up romantic dinners, while the pristinely tiled bathroom has a tub that will surely sing to you after a long day on your feet.

Although the surrounding neighbourhood has a welcomingly quiet residential feel, some of the UK capital's most famous sights are only a short walk away — both The British Museum and St Paul's Cathedral will take you all of twenty minutes to reach.

Man About Town

This elegant apartment boasts a splendid setting in central London, just a short walk from King’s Cross. It’s ideal for a family, a group of friends, or business travellers – you’ll have everything you need for a comfortable stay. This apartment is stylish and practical, with an integrated kitchen in the open-plan living and dining space. There’s also a wraparound balcony where you can admire London skyline views in warm weather. This attractive London home is perfect for those seeking a restful London base. 

Subtle & Soft

Moments from the Barbican, this apartment makes a great base for an exciting stay. You can stroll into Shoreditch where you’ll be spoiled for choice when it comes to restaurants, bars and shops. There’s no free parking, but there are great public transport links making it easy to get across the city. Back at home, you’ll find all the essentials you could need to settle in and unwind. The rooms are simple, fuss-free and ideal for remote workers and families in search of ease and convenience. 

The Good Side

Nestled in one of East London's quieter areas, this two bedroom apartment has enough amenities and design flourishes to make for a comfortable and dependable stay. Forsaking the bustle of areas like Shoreditch and Hackney Wick, the apartment is ten minutes from Stepney Green, where the District Line can take you to Tower Hill, Trafalgar Square, Sloane Square and other iconic parts of London with speed and convenience. The space itself also fits in two bathrooms – a welcome touch – while the living area and private balcony offer pleasant views across the city.

The Bold Design

This unique penthouse was the top floor of a chamois leather factory in the 1900s. It’s now been converted into a quirky home-from-home in London, in an excellent location just off Bermondsey Street. The Tower of London is just across the river, and London Bridge station is a short walk away. The apartment boasts double-height ceilings, exposed brick and beams, and large windows that look out over London rooftops. Look out for the original winch that hoisted the leathers up to the third floor. While four guests can be accommodated here – with two sleeping on the sofa bed – we think it’s a more comfortable base for two. 

Warehouse to Penthouse

We dare you to find a London apartment with a location quite as spectacular as this one. Placed just moments from the charming, cobbled Covent Garden Piazza – you’ve got the best of the city at your fingertips. In just three minutes you can be at the fashionable boutiques of the square or the Royal Opera House. And with a beguiling mix of theatres and museums within walking distance, you won't be short of cultural hotspots. When thoughts turn to food, a sunny spot on the terrace of The Ivy for lunch will do rather nicely. Or take things up a notch with a table at Gordon Ramsay's classic British and French restaurant, Savoy Grill. Back at home, you’ll find a refined, contemporary home awaiting, bathed in natural light thanks to those lofty pitched ceilings and skylights. Sash windows, polished wooden flooring, and ornate cast iron radiators nod to the history of the period building, whilst the sparkling-white bathroom and high-spec kitchen keep things current. Housed in an exclusive serviced apartment block, a concierge is on hand should you need anything. Though in an apartment this luxurious - and with so much to explore amidst the elegant streets below - we very much doubt you will. 

Capital of Cool

This attractive apartment is a great choice of base in London, whether you’re in the city for business or leisure. It’s in Shoreditch, on lively Old Street, with a wealth of restaurants, bars, and cafes nearby. It’s also a hotspot for shopping, theatre, and galleries. With its modern amenities, this loft-style apartment is a comfortable home-from-home, though at full occupancy, four guests will sleep in the living and dining space – two on the sofa bed, and two in a king-size bed. We’d stick to a guest count of four if you're seeking more privacy. 

Old Street Oasis

This modern apartment ticks all the boxes for a central stay. The contemporary design is ultra-cool, with plenty of space across the bedrooms and living area to settle in. Want to make the most of summer weather? Pad out to the private balcony, the perfect spot to enjoy a coffee or cocktail in the fresh air. You'll also have access to the building's shared co-working space and communal gym. As for location, Elephant and Castle is incredibly well-connected. Borough Market is about a ten-minute stroll away, while a Tube station is even closer for those keen to explore London.

Elevated Style

Whether you're in London to shop, museum-hop, or catch a West End show, this stylish apartment is in the perfect location. Not to mention, you've also got views over the greenery of Bloomsbury Square – a rare feature in such a central home. Just around the corner (quite literally), you'll find the British Museum, and Covent Garden and the theatre district are just a short walk away. The compact open-plan living and dining space is just big enough for meals at home and putting your feet up after a long day of exploring – and with such a central location, we bet you'll be doing lots of it.

Blooming Square

Tucked between Covent Garden and Holborn, this contemporary duplex apartment offers a restful retreat in the city. Sleek and set up with everything needed for a comfortable stay, it’s an ideal base for a family or group of friends. But the main reason it caught our eye? It’s all about the location. With many iconic London hotspots within walking distance, such as the British Museum, the Royal Opera House, Leicester Square and Soho, there’s plenty to keep you entertained while you’re away. And for trips further afield, Holborn Station is a mere three minutes on foot. 

London Serenade

Ideal for couples or solo travellers visiting for business or pleasure, this third floor duplex apartment is situated in the very heart of London. With Leicester Square, Piccadilly Circus and Soho's assorted delights just minutes away, you'll be able to explore some of the most vibrant and historic parts of the capital without even needing public transport. The apartment itself is an excellent find, too – there's a large and bright double bedroom, a kitchen equipped with good quality appliances, and a comfortable living area boasting designer furniture. With some of London's very best restaurants, museums and theatres on your doorstep, there are few better places to set down for your stay.
