Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Location is everything, as the saying goes – and that certainly rings true for this home in Ladbroke Grove. With Portobello Road's eclectic cafes, delicious restaurants, and famous market a short stroll away, it's easy to see why this pet-friendly pad caught our eye. It's also convenient to explore London since Latimer Road Station is only a six-minute walk away. Back home, a walled garden will be a sweet spot to relax come summertime, while the living area and kitchen are perfect for family gatherings. The design is a little disconnected since the host's personal belongings will be displayed, but there's a decent amount of space here – even if some of the bedrooms are better suited to children.
