Vetted by our experts
With a prime address on one of Bayswater's leafy avenues, this home is a fabulous find indeed. Go for a stroll around Hyde Park with your family or friends, a short walk away. Or head to one of the barge cafes overlooking the canal in Little Venice, less than fifteen minutes on foot. Paddington station is around a three-minute saunter, too, so the rest of London is easily accessible. This district has a well-established Greek, Middle-Eastern and Brazilian community, so the streets around Queensway (the main shopping area) contain many family-run restaurants, attracting plenty of foodies. We love the pretty tiled courtyard at this home – kick back, open a bottle of wine and totally chill out....
We promise expert-vetted homes, total transparency and exceptional service.
