On a historic street in St John’s Wood, this two-bedroom apartment is light, well equipped and prime territory for R&R between exploring the bougie side of London.

Considered design makes the most of natural light in this lower-ground floor apartment. On a well-to-do residential street – all Georgian facades and portico entrances – this two-bedroom home invites as many as four guests to enjoy some R&R between days exploring Little Venice and London’s many attractions not far beyond.

Well-equipped and functional, the kitchen is prime territory for refuelling – don’t forget to pick up some produce from the delis along St John’s Wood High Street. With a king-size bed, the master bedroom is a dynamic space, doubling up as a living space thanks to its dining area, sofas, television. A large window keeps things bright; ample storage space keeps things tidy. Unwind with a steamy shower in one of two bathrooms. All bathing essentials, including towels and a hairdryer, are provided.

Mornings start well with walks along the canal, stopping by Clifton Nurseries or one of the neighbourhood’s many garden squares for a green fix. Walk a little farther, and you’re in Maida Vale, Paddington and Notting Hill. Maida Vale underground station is a two-minute walk away.
