A short walk from Little Venice, this apartment is a cosy spot to call home. It has everything you need to enjoy a fuss-free stay – there's a balcony ideal for sundowners, a comfortable living area, and two en-suite bedrooms. Sure, the design isn't the most modern, but that adds to the charm and relaxed atmosphere. Location-wise, Maida Vale's local pubs and restaurants are within easy reach, while Regent's Park isn't far on foot. To explore further afield, the Bakerlook Line at nearby Warwick Avenue station can easily connect you to the rest of the city.

About Maida Vale
Leafy Maida Vale is one of London's most sought-after residential areas and for good reason. If you sidestep the tourists posing for photos on the zebra crossing made famous by that Beatles cover, you’ll quickly find what makes this part of town quite so special. Home to beautiful streets of white stucco houses, the very instagrammable canals of Little Venice, and lots of interesting places to eat and drink, Maida Vale residents certainly know how to live well. The BBC's Maida Vale studios means that many residents are bigwigs in the music and creative industries.
