Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined street in the heart of Shepherd’s Bush, this is an ideal base for those on a London stay keen to escape the hustle and bustle of the city. We love the mix of modern and traditional here, packing the home with character yet still providing everything needed for a relaxing stay. And the private garden, while simple, is the perfect spot for after-dinner aperitifs. Keen to explore? You’ll find eateries aplenty if you stroll down Uxbridge Road, and if you’re cooking at home, make sure you visit the iconic Shepherd’s Bush Market.
