Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This artist-designed home is a kaleidoscope of eye-catching beauty, from the sunken lounge with its old Czech movie theatre seating to the main living room's hanging bubble chair, piano and stacks of books. The garden is a welcome feature here too with its outdoor seating and barbecue, while little ones will love the bunk beds in the children’s room. Perfect for families or groups of friends looking to spread out, this home’s insides aren’t the only thing going for it. Location-wise, it’s a winner too with Hammersmith, Shepherd’s Bush and Goldhawk Road Underground stations nearby, allowing for ample sightseeing across all corners of the city.
