Taking inspiration from that all-too-rare of London amenities, an outside space, this apartment, designed to maximise the private patio area and natural light, will have you relaxing in style. Located near Shepherd's Bush in West London, it's perfectly suited for those looking to explore the city and yet be far removed from the excited crowds and flocks of tourists. Inside, you'll find a calm and comfortable living space with pale wood floors, elegant furnishings and curated houseplants. Light floods in throughout the day, thanks to the sleek crittall-style doors, creating a soothing space to unwind with gin and tonic after a day spent sightseeing – there's a fully-stocked drinks cabinet to assist you with that. You'll have no trouble getting a good night's sleep here, with two cosy bedrooms benefitting from original period fireplaces, dark oak floors and double-hung windows fitted with black-out shutters. Elsewhere, keen chefs will enjoy cooking for their guests in the modern island kitchen, while socialising in the open space. When you're ready to wander, take some time to explore the surrounding area from this prime location. Spend an afternoon in Notting Hill, moseying through the markets on Portobello Rd and sampling the delicious street food on offer, before stopping off for a pint in a traditional British pub – just twenty minutes away on public transport or a thirteen-minute Uber. If you fancy a walk, Holland Park is a little over half an hour away on foot. But the star of the show is the outdoor terrace, complete with seating, green foliage and tall brick walls for complete privacy. We can think of no better place to relax on a balmy summer evening spent out here with a glass of your favourite tipple, the bifold doors thrown open, instantly expanding your communal area – ideal for hosting guests.
