This sleek and stylish apartment exceeds all expectations, with restored sage panelled walls, matte black fittings, and whitewashed herringbone parquet flooring, allowing you to enjoy dinners on the velvet chairs by the dining table under statement lighting at a period-meets-ultramodern home.

You won't find a better-located home elsewhere – only a minute's walk from Regent's Street to pick up some outfits for the many nights ahead. Spend the morning gazing over Hanover Square as the Juliet balcony windows beam with natural light. Head to your local – one you would not expect is Selfridges – and pick up some fresh cheese for a cheese and wine afternoon in Hyde Park while watching the world go by. You'll be at Carnaby Street, the pulsing centre of London's West End, in six minutes. Stroll through the colourful streets to the flagship stores before stopping at Grind for a creamy latte.


Home truths:
*Due to the home's central position, there may be street noise, with the living room registering at fifty decibels, but the bedrooms are well protected at the back of the home
*Shoes are not permitted in the apartment (particularly stilettos), as the herringbone flooring is rather fragile
