Contemporary yet comfortable, this Kentish Town apartment makes for a practical base in London. There are live music venues and local eateries nearby, and excellent transport links mean that the capital’s key attractions are within easy reach. Kentish Town tube station is two minutes away on foot, and Big Ben is twenty-five minutes away. The apartment is sleek and glossy but lacks a little in personality – the glass-fronted balcony is a real plus point though.
