West London's Victorian townhouses are immensely popular, and for good reason. They combine space with traditional charm, and this home is no exception, thanks to the bay windows and tall ceilings that bring in plenty of light. The handsome living room has an array of books to leaf through, along with a pretty ornamental fireplace and sumptuous, velvet seating. Meanwhile, the kitchen is a more modern area, with a vaulted ceiling, sleek units and a few quirky touches – look out for the neon sign above the sink. From here, the French doors open up into the garden, complete with an array of seating options so you can dine and relax alfresco on sunny days. The green, open spaces of Wandsworth Common are just a five-minute stroll away from your front door, and you'll find a selection of restaurants and shops within walking distance. And, getting into the city centre is quick and easy – just take a train from Wandsworth Common station and you can be amongst the bright lights of the West End within half an hour.

Local guide
About Wandsworth
Wandsworth attracts young families and professionals with its residential streets and open spaces. The Common is a standout attraction here where you'll feel a world away from the busyness of London life. The area is also pretty well-connected with a number of rail stations that will get you into Waterloo and Victoria in around 15 minutes. If you want a bit of piece and quiet while also remaining in touching distance of Central London, Wandsworth could serve you well for your stay.
