Housed within a Grade II listed building, this home is rich in period character. Soaring ceilings and an original decorative fireplace lend the living space traditional charm, while afternoon light spills through the tall windows, bringing every architectural detail to life. There's plenty of room to stretch out after a day spent exploring the capital, and the sofa bed makes hosting family or friends refreshingly easy. In Acton, you're around a ten-minute stroll from the Overground – head south for the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew in around twenty minutes, or travel north-west to Hampstead Heath in half an hour.

About Acton
The vast expanse that is Acton has changed a lot over the past few decades, previously a humble residential spot known strangely for its abundance of launderettes, the area is now a buzzing and cosmopolitan neighbourhood with a vibrant mix of locals who can be found enjoying the many cosy restaurants and family friendly pubs that dot the area. Whilst the more everyday and 'suburban' feel of Acton won't be for those looking to stay in the lap of luxury, those looking for a family friendly with a genuine London feel with find this neighbourhood to be a perfect fit.
