Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Down a cutesy little mews street, this family-sized home puts you within easy walking distance of Hyde Park and the boutiques and restaurants of stylish Kensington. Despite its central location, the atmosphere is quiet. The kitchen has everything you need for self-catering, plus some extra touches like spices and sauces and a huge, squashy sofa in the living room invites you to relax. The bedroom with two sets of bunk beds (four bunks) may feel a little squished, but it’s got a kids’ sleepover vibe for little ones. The bonus is a wrap-around (unfurnished) balcony looking out over the pretty mews street below.
