Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Walking through this home was a delight. Your hosts have filled the space with so much life and personality (their careers in the creative industry evident in the design). Julianna is an artist, whose beautiful paintings you can spot in the home, and her partner is a carpenter. The open-plan kitchen and living room, which opens onto a private garden, is a stylish, inspiring and sociable area to spend time in. The location is also ideal if you are looking for an easy-going, residential spot that still has good transport links into the city.

About Kensal Green
Situated in the culturally diverse Borough of Brent, away from the thrum of tourists, Kensal Green – sometimes known as Kensal Rise – is one of West London’s most coveted postcodes. The not-for-profit Lexi Cinema, with its selection of arthouse and mainstream flicks has become a firm favourite among the neighbourhood’s creative types.
