With its soft colour palette and floral theme, this home in Kensington has a definite touch of English charm to it. From its bespoke curtains to its rustic kitchen table and flower-filled patio, it feels like eternal springtime here from the moment you walk through the door. Sit pretty in the living room with your morning coffee while enjoying the fresh air that comes through the French doors to the patio that leads out to a stunning communal garden. Take a stroll here, bring a blanket to lie on as you soak up the sun, then venture out to see the surrounding sights. You’re just a ten-minute walk from South Kensington and its world-famous museums while leafy Hyde Park is less than thirty minutes away. After a day of exploring, you’ll relish coming home for a long soak in the marble-framed bath, followed by a glass of wine and a meal in the serene dining area. Alternatively, throw on your glad rags for a meal out at one of the city's fine dining spots – you have countless options when it comes to restaurants and bars nearby. When it’s time to turn in, you’ll find two comfortable bedrooms waiting to offer you a dreamy night’s rest.

Home truths
Please bear in mind that this is a lower ground flat so there won’t be an abundance of natural light or rooftop views
This home is probably not for those looking for a media haven as there is only one small TV in the communal area here

Local guide
About Earl's Court
Kensington’s more down-to-earth neighbour, Earl’s Court is a well-rounded base to explore West London – and beyond. Relaxed restaurants, traditional pubs and leafy side streets characterise the neighbourhood. Make sure you visit The Troubadour, an iconic music venue that hosted Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell in its prime. You’re more likely to walk in on a lowkey jazz session these days, performed under a decades-old collection of instruments...

Cosy up for a bite at the Troubadour
Soak up music history in this legendary venue & coffee house that's played host to the likes of Bob Dylan & Jimi Hendrix. Still famous for great food, coffee & regular live gigs in the basement club.
Learn something new at The Science Museum
The Science Museum is free (except for the temporary exhibits). Learn all about discovering the DNA molecule, see Puffing Billy, and be sure to check out the photography collection as well.
Ale At The Stanhope
On Gloucester Road, you will find the Stanhope Arms, a traditionally decorated pub with a great range of ales to choose from. The perfect place for a quick drink after a long day of exploring.
Walk on by...
We challenge you to walk past Fait Mason and resist the call of the cupcake or the smell of fresh brewed coffee from 8am most mornings.
Attend a private art exhibition at Gallery 286
This gorgeous gallery is to be found in a Victorian townhouse and can be explored by appointment. Worth getting on the mailing list.
Dine at Macellaio RC South Kensington
No-nonsense restaurant with a butchery counter. Choose a cut of beef and have it grilled to perfection. Loved for its excellent service, intriguing menu, and great wine selection.
Cosy up at the historic Hereford Arms
Rumour has it that this Victorian pub was once Jack the Ripper's favourite drinking haunt. Nowadays it's best known for its convivial vibe, classic British pub grub & locally-brewed Fuller's beer.
Get inspired at the Mosaic Rooms
One of the finest collections of Islamic art in London, The Mosaic Rooms has a permanent collection and monthly exhibitions showcasing this timeless art form.
St Augustine's Church
Once a favourite church of renowned poet John Betjemen, the church's building is also a stunning display of Victorian architecture, and a thriving house of worship.
Taste some English Ale at The Blackbird
This Fullers pub right by Earl's Court station ticks all boxes for a good old boozer. Expect pub classics alongside a good selection of ale and continental lager.
Snap a photo at the Earls Court Police Box
A treat for Doctor Who fans, this refurbished police box outside Earls Court Station is a perfect spot for a selfie. Channel your inner Time Lord and capture the moment.
Dine at La Pappardella
Simply-styled, open-fronted Italian restaurant serving delicious pizza and traditional cuisine. Good food, quick service, and friendly staff.
