A private walled garden in central London is a rare find, and this apartment makes it the heart of the stay – somewhere to linger over morning coffee or eat outdoors beneath the trees, far from the city's noise. Inside, the period living room has a marble fireplace and soaring ceilings that give the space real breathing room, while the main bedroom looks out to a green canopy through tall Georgian windows. Sitting between Paddington, Little Venice, and St John's Wood, with a Tube station a three-minute walk away, it's a calm base that doesn't ask you to compromise on location.

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.
