Nestled in the heart of Kew, this bright flat is a ten-minute walk from the famous Kew Garden and mere steps from excellent cafes, pubs and eateries. Anthophiles, amateur botanists and keen horticulturists will love this flowery locale, but even if you don't have a green thumb, this village-like neighbourhood is sure to impress. Hop on the District Line or Overground at Kew Gardens Station (a five-minute walk) and you'll be in lively Richmond in minutes. Or, if you're in the mood to relax, pour yourself a glass of wine and lounge on the private balcony. Filled with potted plants and overlooking the idyllic street, it's a sweet spot to bask in the sunshine while enjoying cocktails and good company. Why not fire up the charcoal barbecue for an alfresco meal as the sun goes down? Inside is just as lovely – each room is brimming with natural light, thanks to the big windows, and traditional features like original hardwood floors. The design is minimal and simple, yet it still feels cosy. Whether you're unwinding with a book in the living area, soaking in the pastel bathtub or nodding off in the three comfortable bedrooms, you're sure to feel right at home here.
