We love the village feel of this home's street in chic Kensington. It's just a few minutes' walk from High Street Kensington tube station, so exploring the rest of London is a cinch. There are plenty of restaurants in the locale to enjoy, while for food shopping, there's a Wholefoods store and a large Marks and Spencers situated on Kensington High Street, as well as an array of stylish boutiques, of course. A real highlight of this home is its two private outdoor areas – our favourite is the roof terrace with its views over the neighbourhood's rooftops. This abode has a lovely bright feeling, especially in the dining area with its glazed roof. Open up the French doors to the courtyard and select a book from the shelves or listen to some music on the sound system and truly unwind.

Local guide
About Kensington
Affluent and incredibly central, Kensington is a great base for exploring London on foot. Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park are on your doorstep and so are the Victoria and Albert, Science, and Natural History Museums. The streets are attractive and well maintained (grand, white stucco facades aplenty) and your neighbours will be a wealthy, conservative set. Lots of positives but probably not the place to let your hair down.
