Embassy Elegance, by Veeve

Searching for a family-friendly, light-filled home all within walking distance of Tate Britain, Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace and Big Ben? Some of London’s most iconic landmarks may be just across the river but there's also plenty of space, style and serenity to enjoy at home in this Vauxhall retreat. Other nearby attractions include the architecturally striking US Embassy building and Vauxhall Park, whilst cricket enthusiasts may also enjoy a trip to the iconic Oval grounds.

A welcoming living areas offers an open-plan layout, complete with comfy corner sofa and elegant dining table. Vintage interiors blend seamlessly into a modernist, light-filled kitchen, where you'll find a smart island and bar stools — perfect for enjoying a glass of wine after a day exploring the city.

An adjacent garden room offers, as you might expect, views onto the leafy patio behind. This calming spot comprises a sofa and two armchairs, ideal for ensconcing yourself with a good book. On a sunnier day, we'd recommend venturing onto the patio for an alfresco bite to eat.

Upstairs, there is a generous family-sized bathroom with walk-in shower and roll top bath, perfect for a relaxing soak. A second living room can be found on the first floor, where you can unwind with a film and obligatory snacks. There's also a sofa bed, handy for extra guests. The four spacious bedrooms each provide a comfortable King-size bed, all with their own unique colour scheme. Tucked in the eaves, the study provides an ideal work space should you need to check an email or two…or simply tinkle on the keyboard nearby!

We Love
The definitive colour scheme of each of the rooms — from minty greens to baby blues, there's a refreshing and uplifting feeling throughout.
