The Aquinas London

Property Description

A short walk south of the Thames, you'll find Victorian and Edwardian terraced houses tucked away on a calm street. In the shadow of the South Bank, this home offers peace and quiet among all the excitement of London’s cultural hub. The lush, trailing greenery of your private garden leads you past the patio and barbecue, towards French doors opening into the home. Stepping inside, bay windows shed glorious light upon a surprisingly modern, open-plan living space. A pop of orange from the feature wall reminds you that you’re still right in the heart of this colourful city, even in these serene surroundings. Now, would you rather relax with your cup of tea on the vintage leather armchair or the contemporary corner sofa? The traditional versus modern decor of this home seems to echo the neighbourhood around you. The thatched roof of Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre sits just along the river from the brutalist architecture of the National Theatre. Local pubs serving up Sunday roasts are only a stroll away from rooftop cocktail bars. And if you still want more, you’re so close to the tube that you’ve got the entire city at your disposal.
