Stylish and practical, this home is a superb choice of base in West London. It’s located in Kensal Green, a few stops on the Overground from Kew Gardens, and with easy access to the rest of London. The house is tucked away on a quiet tree-lined street. It’s a peaceful home-from-home, beautifully designed with a focus on light – the back wall of the kitchen and living space is entirely made of glass. There’s a garden to spend sunny days in, and plenty of room for everyone to gather together.
