Situated in a cool southwest London postcode, this bright apartment is a fantastic base for exploring London. Despite being on the lower floor of a Victorian townhouse, there’s certainly nothing dark and dingy about this place – natural light bounces off gallery-white walls, accentuating contemporary details. And to make the most of that light, simply step out onto your private patio.

Whether you’re here for business or to explore the city, this suntrap is the perfect place to savour a refreshing morning coffee, preparing you for the day ahead. If you really want to treat yourself in the morning, kick off your day with some breakfast waffles fresh off the waffle maker.

Getting around the city is a breeze from here. The nearby Fulham Broadway Underground station has direct links to Earl’s Court, South Kensington, and more. If you want to stay closer to home, you can explore Fulham’s shops, restaurants, cafes, and bars along Fulham Road, North End Road, and New King’s Road.

After a day of working hard in the big city or simply walking around, a crisp glass of wine on your patio will go down a treat. You can whip up dinner in your well-equipped kitchen for an alfresco meal under the early evening sun, or stay cosy around the dining table in the colder months.
