It doesn't get more central than this. Paddington Station is practically on your doorstep here, offering easy access across the whole of London. Closer to home, Paddington Basin features buzzing bars and restaurants – and it's also where you'll find this chic apartment. We love the panoramic terrace, while the light-filled living area makes entertaining a breeze. The only downside is that there isn't a desk – no bother, though, since the dining table can pull double duty as workspace just fine.

Home truths:
*Construction work is ongoing in the area around this home until approximately March 2025 – there will be scaffolding around the building, and no access to the terraces or balcony.
*The building has a concierge service and a lift. The entrance is shared with other residents.
*There isn't a desk here, but the dining table doubles as a laptop-friendly workspace.
