This home is a kaleidoscope of eye-catching beauty, from the sunken lounge with its old Czech movie theatre seating to the main living room`s hanging bubble chair and piano. The garden is a welcome feature here too with its outdoor seating and barbecue. Perfect for families or groups of friends looking to spread out. Location-wise, it’s a winner too with Hammersmith, Shepherd’s Bush and Goldhawk Road Underground stations nearby, allowing for ample sightseeing across all corners of the city.
Welcome to our spacious and stylish London home that`s fully equipped with everything you need to make your stay unforgettable! Located just a stone`s throw away from three tube stations and only half an hour from Heathrow airport, our 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom house is perfect for families, groups of friends, or business travellers visiting the city.
As soon as you enter the property on the ground floor, you`ll be greeted by a beautifully designed double living room, complete with comfortable seating, a hanging bubble chair, a chess table, eclectic collectibles from around the world and far too many books, and a Sohmer & Co upright piano, perfect for those that love to tinkle the ivories.
The central feature of the lower-ground floor open-plan kitchen is a double length wood countertop & table that can seat 8 people for a meal. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to whip up your favourite recipes, or to make the perfect espresso. For aprés-entertainment there is a unique sunken lounge that is our TV room, with vintage cinema chairs imported from an old Czech movie theatre. This floor opens up to a small, secluded garden – perfect to spend an afternoon with a book or a glass of wine.
On the first floor there are two generously sized bedrooms, with fresh linens and plenty of storage space, plus one bedroom for kids or teens with two bunk beds and a third fold-out single bed, as well as a desk to share. The master bedroom boasts a King size bed, and a painting made by one of our favourite painters of the 60s. It shares a family bathroom (which has a bath as well as a separate walk-in shower) with the kids’ bedroom.
The loft (third floor|) is its own separate space – brightly lit thanks to dormer windows and a view over the green backyards of the neighbourhood – with a double bed, an ensuite bathroom and shower, a pull-out (double) sofa, a desk and a TV.
