As soon as you step through the front door of this three-storey house, it’s clear that the owner has invested love and care into making it feel like home. On a quiet street (it really is peaceful for London) in Shepherd’s Bush, it’s just a stone’s throw from the Westfield shopping centre (5 mins) and within easy walking distance of the tube (2 mins), for trains to central. The overall feel is traditional, with wooden floorboards, lots of books and classical furniture. The exception to this is the ultra-modern kitchen, with its high gloss units and skylights, from which bi-fold doors open out completely to a pretty courtyard garden. With its multi-floor layout, it would work well for a group of friends or a family with older children (there’s a twin room and a separate TV area so they can have their own space). Our favourite spot has to be the roof terrace, for morning coffees or evening drinks, before a wander into Shepherd’s Bush for a relaxed pub dinner followed by some live music.

About Shepherd's Bush

A walk down the Uxbridge Road will give you a sense of the area's multicultural make-up, with food stores, restaurants and market stalls from all over the world and Goldhawk Road is famous for its many...
