This three-floor home combines a film-set location with space, soul and style. Very recognisably ‘London’, this classically terraced street has played a starring role in many a movie and TV series. The same goes for the South Bank riverside walkway, lined with trees, historic pubs and restaurants, a few minutes away, along with the National Theatre, Tate Modern and London Eye. Inside, the house impresses with its many distinct spaces, from a beckoning kitchen to the decked garden. We especially loved slumbering in the two luxury bedrooms, where goose down duvets rest atop memory foam mattresses. You're well served for public transport links, with Southwark and Waterloo stations both within a five-minute walk, as well as several convenient bus routes to whisk you into Central in under fifteen minutes.

Home truths

    The house has three floors, which means a few stairs too

    The house has a few tricks such as the disguised cupboards in the living room

    The front door opens straight into the living room

    The rooms are not huge but they are both extremely cosy with Hungarian goose down and Tempur memory foam mattresses

    Since the photoshoot a few changes have been made: a TV with an Amazon Fire Stick in the master bedroom, Dyson fans and some new furniture and artwork

About South Bank

If you're a culture vulture and like a good riverside promenade, then this is the place for you. The South Bank is home to The National Theatre, The Southbank Centre, The Royal Festival Hall, and The National Theatre, all of which offer dazzling international programmes. On the weekends, it is home to a popular food market and the riverfront fills up with Londoners and tourists alike, attracted by the bustle, the culture, and romantic waterside walking and drinking opportunities.
