This minimalistic chic apartment is perched atop a building in London, on the bustling Archway Road. Boasting bold, block colour and a rooftop terrace where you can gaze over the gorgeous city skyline with your morning coffee or evening drinks, this home is perfect for those travelling for work or who just want to experience London right at the heart of it. Cook up a hearty feast in the kitchen as natural light streams in through the large windows and the underfloor heating warms your toes, and sink into the cosy sofa for a movie night after a long day of exploring the city. The bathtub is the perfect way to wake up in the morning, and the best way to end a day before you wrap yourself up in the comfort of one of the beds upstairs for a great night's sleep. The world outside this home is no stranger to traffic and commotion, but it makes for the perfect place for getting to know London. With plenty of shops, takeaways and cafes on Archway Road itself, you won't need to travel far to pick up any necessities you might need during your stay. And you can always hop on... a bus or in a taxi for a day out, whether you're exploring the grassy knolls of Hampstead Heath or heading down to the centre of the city to grab a bite to eat or enjoy the nightlife or just some retail therapy.

Your neighbours will mainly be successful business people and well-off families, but Highgate has also become popular with celebrities wanting privacy, both living and dead: Highgate's cemetary is home...
