This London pad is pure English elegance from top to bottom, from the crystal chandelier that hangs from the living room ceiling to the polished wooden parquet flooring. The attention to detail is evident in each room, with grand gilt dressing tables and striking bathroom tiles adding a touch of glamour to even the home's private spaces. Despite the antiques, there’s nothing overly formal about it – warm sunflower tones, cosy armchairs, and every modern comfort turn this period home into a welcoming space for you and your guests to make your own. Though there are several desks to set up a remote office, we think it would be a crying shame not to spend at least some of your time really relaxing in this haven. After all, who could concentrate when those beautiful bay windows open out to views of the garden? Spend sunny days picnicking on the lawn and taking some time to stop and smell the roses before heading out for a stroll around Holland Park. This upscale neighbourhood is filled with quaint coffee shops and independent boutiques, and just half an hour on the tube will take you to the likes of Chelsea, Notting Hill, or Soho. So let loose, unwind, and explore – those emails will still be there at the end of the day.

Local guide


About Holland Park

Filled with mews streets, stucco mansions and green spaces, Holland Park is an idyllic neighbourhood sandwiched between Notting Hill, Kensington and Shepherd's Bush. Holland Park itself is one of London's most picturesque green spaces with a rich history. Today, the park boasts an open-air theatre and opera, Japanese-style Kyoto Gardens and a family playground. For dining, try Julie's and The Belvedere, and for a refreshing pint or aperol spritz, the Mitre and The Ladbroke Arms are a couple of great, classic British pubs in the area.
