Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
It's impossible not to be impressed by this unique and striking home. Originally a Victorian coach house with an adjacent cottage, your hosts have worked tirelessly to transform it into a stunning yet functional haven, filled with bespoke design features and intriguing art. It’s a well-loved family home, so expect to find eclectic possessions that add lots of lived-in character. However, those who prefer a more minimalist space may prefer to look elsewhere. With a wood-burning central fireplace, a cosy TV room (with a console for kids) and a lovely sun-dappled garden, we think you'll be very happy here. You've got plenty of options for food and drink a short walk from your front door, including several lovely gastropubs and restaurants. If you fancy preparing a meal at home, the famous Ginger Pig butcher is no more than a five-minute walk away. At the same time, the nearest Tube station is a scenic twelve-minute walk through the green spaces of Ravenscourt Park. From here, the District Line will whisk you off to the likes of South Kensington and Sloane Square in a little over ten minutes.

Home truths
There's lots of lived-in character in this home, so expect a few loose floorboards, faded finishes and plenty of the host's belongings
The mezzanine area is known to get hot in the summer
Two lovely dogs live in the home, and while they won't be around during your stay, it's probably not the best home for those with allergies
You are close to a fairly busy road and you can hear traffic noise in the garden and fourth bedroom as they are on the street side
The location is residential and family-friendly, but the nearest station is around a twelve-minute walk away
