Behind the dove grey door of this elegant West London home set in Shepherd’s Bush is a treasure-filled family pad brimming with style and character. Downstairs, the open-plan layout is set up for easy socialising. Get together for atmospheric evening meals in the dedicated dining room – the gallery of curated artwork and colourful ceramics will help set the scene. And when the sun shines down over London town, take things outside into the garden for alfresco suppers – the trampoline will keep little ones busy on long summer nights. Set out over three floors united by timeless design, kids will love the novelty of sharing the twin bedroom with the home’s resident plush giraffe. And you'll be up and at 'em at lightning speed each morning, with three luxurious bathrooms to choose from here. When it’s time to get acquainted with London living, you couldn’t dream up a better location. The buzz of Notting Hill’s Portobello Market, the beautiful Holland Park and the shopping mecca of Westfield are all close by. Or hop on the tube at Wood Lane (a thirteen-minute walk) and blaze a trail into central London – it’s all as easy as it sounds.
