Nestled in leafy St John’s Wood, this Victorian home offers the village vibe of a city suburb, along with easy access to the rest of London. Whether you’re staying for work or pleasure, this elegant house is a sophisticated place to base yourself. It retains plenty of period charm (see the big bay window and high ceilings) yet has all the modern touches you need for a comfortable stay, including a well-appointed kitchen. We also love the terrace – the perfect spot to plan your day over coffee or unwind with a glass of wine. Ready to explore? Take a stroll to nearby Regent’s Park, one of the city’s Royal Parks, or hop on the Tube to tick off more London landmarks.

Parking in London can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible. The nearest Underground stations (St John's Wood and Warwick Avenue) are a short stroll away.

This house is set over three floors, so you'll need to be able to climb stairs.
