Pimlico Gem London, Greater London

Property Description

This distinctive red-brick block was once council housing, but many have since been taken over and turned into luxurious apartments - such as this one. Spread out over three floors, and with a stunning roof terrace that has an incomparable view of the city, you'll be unlikely to find a better host than Aleksander in the whole city. All you need to do is turn up with your change of clothes, and whether it's for work or pleasure, prepare to enjoy your stay in the city.

Home truths:
* While there's a lift to get to the front door, the property is spread out over several floors so would be inappropriate for people with mobility issues, or who don't like climbing up and down levels
* This is a grown-ups only space - with a few too many sharp edges and big bumps for our toddling friends
* If you like a good soak in the tub - this isn't the spot for you - while a fantastic size, the bathroom is shower only
