Suiting small families, this lovely, large house features a big back garden for leg-stretching. Inside, a warm red-orange theme decorates its bright lounge, kitchen and conservatory. You’ll also find musical instruments to play, and shelves bursting with books. Upstairs are adorable bedrooms, luxurious bathrooms and a balcony deck for sunbathing. The basement contains a cute kid’s den. Plenty of distraction, then, but the same is true of surrounding Queen’s Park – a hidden-gem residential neighbourhood. Underground trains run direct to Oxford Circus.

Local guide
About Kilburn
Busy and bustling Kilburn High Road is the central artery of an area whose down-to-earth-character continues to serve its long-standing Irish and Caribbean communities well. Kilburn still has something raw and real about it and it’s a great part of town to stay in if you want to experience authentic multicultural London. It’s incredibly diverse ethnically but has also recently become popular with young families attracted by the leafy streets...
