Under a fifteen-minute stroll from this elegant home you'll find the iconic BBC Maida Vale studios, where everyone from Beyoncé to the Beatles and David Bowie have played. It’s the same distance to the antique stalls of Portobello Road Market and just a few minutes more to the chic boutiques of Westbourne Grove. Or the leafy canals of Little Venice are under twenty minutes on foot. Back at this apartment, housed in a lovely period building, it’s light and bright thanks to the large bay window. We love the character features here, including the Victorian fireplace. After all that sightseeing, rustle up a cocktail on the drinks trolley and make yourself at home. This place is perfect for a business professional, couple or solo traveller looking to explore all that London has to offer.

Home truths
It's on the first floor of a converted terrace house, so there is one flight of stairs to climb - something to bear in mind if you have limited mobility.
The kitchen has a blender for whipping up sauces and an espresso machine.
There's a Sainsbury's Local on the corner (5 minute walk), and popular supermarkets Waitrose and Planet Organic are a 15-20 minute walk or 5-minute bus ride away.
If you're travelling by plane, London Heathrow is the nearest airport – it's a forty-five-minute drive from this home.

Catch a film at Electric Cinema
Not your average cinema: think large, comfy red velvet armchairs, front row beds for cosy couples, an Edwardian Baroque-style interior & cocktails delivered to your chair. Sound like a plan?
Visit the Museum of Brands
Remember when Mars Bars used to be 10p? It’s all there, the brands and packs, radios and ads, fads, sweets, toys and games. Evocative and inspiring, it’s a kaleidoscope of images and brands.
