THE APARTMENT

Here’s a West London residence that’s ideal for couples, clients or work colleagues seeking a high quality apartment to call home for the duration of their stay in the capital.

Take a few steps up from street level and the lift from the entrance hall and you’ll reach an apartment that exudes elegance and homely luxury in every room, and features not one but two balconies.

Your front door opens into a large hallway from where you can access the other rooms in the apartment. Immediately to your right is:

THE LIVING ROOM

A decorative fireplace with a flat screen television mounted above the mantelpiece provides the focus for this relaxing reception room. The space benefits from large windows that bathe the quality furnishings and flooring in natural light during the day, while in the evenings, you have a choice of lamps to get the ambience just as you like it.

Will the sofa or twin armchairs be your favourite spot to relax during your time here? Whichever you prefer, the coffee table provides a handy place for books, coffee mugs and tea cups, while a writing desk and chair gives you somewhere to work with your laptop if you are visiting London on business. Next to the desk are double doors which lead into…

THE KITCHEN

It won’t take you long to feel at home in this smartly presented kitchen. A wealth of countertop space gives you room to prepare deliciousness whenever you’re hungry. And the table and chairs by the window give you somewhere to sit and enjoy your culinary creations. All the utensils and cookware are neatly stored away in the many cabinets, and of course there are all the essentials including a toaster, kettle and coffee maker so you can start each day the delicious way.

THE BATHROOM

Returning to the entrance hall, and the next room you’ll reach is the main bathroom, another bright and attractive space. A large mirror extends along the far wall, with a tub with shower attachment, a WC and wash basin giving you somewhere luxurious to get ready for work meetings in London, days out sightseeing, or evenings at the theatre.

THE BEDROOMS

Accessed from the main hall via a couple of steps is the first of the two bedrooms. You’re sure to be drawn to the patio doors at the far end which open out onto the first of the apartment’s two balconies, this one featuring a table and chairs and bench-style seating. It offers a great vantage point from which you can relax and look out over the rooftops of London any time of day.

But there’s more to delight in this room, not least the beautifully presented double bed and the ensuite shower room with its walk-in cubicle, WC and wash basin.

The second bedroom is next to the first, and although there’s no ensuite, there is another gloriously comfortable bed to enjoy and patio doors that open out onto the second balcony. What better way to start a new day in London than throwing open the doors and taking in the delights of your surroundings.

THE LOCAL AREA

You’ll soon see why there are so many five-star hotels in this part of London. It’s conveniently located to make many of the capital’s attractions and business districts easy to reach, with many garden squares and impressive residences adding to the beauty of the area.

Here are some of the popular places nearby, with an approximate distance from the apartment included:

Fulham Road Picturehouse

The local cinema is 0.3 miles from the apartment.

Royal Marsden Hospital (0.5m)

Royal Brompton Hospital (0.7m)

If you are working at either of these hospitals, or perhaps want to stay close to someone who’s having treatment there, you won’t have far to travel if you stay here.

King’s Road

Great for browsing boutique stores or people watching from coffee shops and classy eateries, this iconic road is about half a mile from the apartment.

Natural History Museum

Science Museum

Victoria and Albert Museum

We’ve grouped these popular attractions together, because they’re all based in the same area of London just over half a mile away

Royal Hospital Chelsea

Every spring, the grounds of this hospital play host to the world-famous Chelsea Flower Show. If you’re visiting or showing at the event, staying here is a good option as it’s only 1.6 miles away

Royal Albert Hall

The venue is just under a mile from the apartment, so if you have tickets for a performance, it won’t take long for you to reach your seats.

Harrods

You’re unlikely to stay in the area and not be tempted to visit London’s most famous department store, just 1.1 miles away in a taxi.

GETTING AROUND

With so much within an easily walkable distance from the apartment, you may well find that you don’t need to use public transport or taxis during your stay.

But if you are planning to venture further afield or explore more of London, it’s good to know that you are well served by transport options.

South Kensington tube station is a mere 0.4 miles from the house, and is served by Piccadilly, Circle and District Line trains. Those lines bring big transport hubs at Paddington, Heathrow Airport and Victoria within easy reach. Gloucester Road London Underground station is also around half a mile from the apartment.

The area around your home is well served by local bus services that will take you all over the capital, and you can always hire an Uber or hail a black taxi if you want to get around London in a car.
