Bay windows, bold design and birdsong in the back garden; this classic townhouse is an oasis in the city. Out in Queen’s Park, there are plenty of local pubs, restaurants and beautiful green spaces to peruse just a few streets away and it’s a 5-minute walk to the Tube station, whisking you into central London in 15 minutes. This home is super chic from top to bottom, with oak-lined walls, exposed brick, stone sinks and original fireplaces. The dine-in kitchen is a budding chef’s dream – the black granite island provides plenty of prep space and the huge, range cooker comes with three ovens. Slide open the glass doors and serve at the dining table on the flower-filled back patio. When it comes to hitting the hay, choose between a light-flooded master bedroom on the top floor with two lounge areas and it own terrace, or cosy up in a bay-windowed bedroom with its original fireplace.

Home truths:
* If the home was at full capacity, guests would have to split between the two dining tables when eating in
* The fireplaces are only decorative
* The fourth bedroom's wardrobe is on the smaller side
