This Paddington Basin apartment delivers something London rarely offers – canal and city skyline views through floor-to-ceiling windows, in every room that counts. The living and dining areas are bright and connected, making the space as comfortable for a long group dinner as it is for a quiet evening in. Three king-size bedrooms, air conditioning, and a secure underground parking space round things out practically. Little Venice is an eight-minute walk, Paddington Station is on the doorstep, and waterside restaurants and cafes line the basin below.
