Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Situated on a quiet residential road, just a four-minute walk from Queen’s Park and a twenty-minute tube ride from Soho, this stylish home gives you the chance to experience London at its finest. Unfolding over three floors, you'll find everything you need for a comfortable stay including a bright working space and even a roll-top bathtub. The modern kitchen also adds potential for laidback meals at home. Although, Chamberlayne Road – a minute’s walk from your doorstep – offers a number of eateries should you prefer someone else do the cooking. Or, if you’re feeling flash, Notting Hill’s chic restaurants are a fifteen-minute bus ride away.

Home truths
This home is set over three floors without a lift, plus an additional flight of stairs at the entrance of the home, so you'll need to be able to climb stairs.
This is a lived-in home. You should expect some of the host's personal belongings to be present during your stay.
There is no TV in this apartment. That said, we think you'll spend most of your time out exploring the sights.
If you're looking to catch up on work during your stay, there's a handy desk in the living room.
The lead guest must be at least 25 years old.
Parking in London can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport where possible.
