There's a lot to love about this West London loft conversion. First, there's the industrial-inspired design and smart layout. It's spread across two floors (and the stairs can be a little steep), with the living area perched on the top level to maximise natural light. There's also a well-equipped (albeit compact) kitchen, while the dining table can double as a desk if you're in town for business. We also like the location – it's about a thirty-minute train ride from central London, but it has a lot to offer. Kew Gardens and other green spaces are within walking distance, Chiswick's business parks can be reached by bus, and Heathrow is a short drive away.

Home truths
This home isn't in central London, so you'll have to utilise public transport to visit the tourist areas. However, it's only a short drive from Heathrow Airport and puts you in a good spot to explore West London.
There are multiple staircases here, and some of them are open-tread and narrow.
This apartment is by a busy road, so it can get a bit noisy when the windows are open. However, it's relatively quiet when the windows are closed.
Unless accompanied by parents, the minimum age limit here is 21 years old.
Parties and other gatherings are strictly not allowed here.
If you’re travelling for work, the dining table doubles as a laptop-friendly workspace.
