About this property

A West London Retreat

High ceilings and a large window overlooking leafy Brook Green define the spacious open-plan reception room, where natural light becomes a feature in itself. A comfortable sofa invites you to unwind in front of the television, while a small dining table works well for meals or catching up on work. Distinctive artwork adds warmth and colour throughout, creating that blend of modern and traditional we're rather fond of.

The compact yet well-equipped kitchen is bright and airy, with everything you need for self-catering. The double bedroom features a king-size bed with ample storage, and backs onto the lush communal garden - making it a genuinely quiet and peaceful retreat. The modern bathroom includes a large walk-in shower, plenty of storage, and a utility cupboard housing the washing machine.

Your Neighbourhood
You're on the west side of Shepherds Bush Road with excellent access to the West End and key West London destinations. Holland Park, Kensington, and Earl's Court are all within easy reach, while Kensington Olympia and Hammersmith Broadway make this a practical choice for business travellers too.

Shepherds Bush and Hammersmith underground stations (Central and Piccadilly lines) are within easy walking distance. Heathrow Airport is around 30 minutes away by taxi or tube. A local Sainsbury's and bike rental station are just minutes away - perfect for rides along the nearby River Thames.

The area offers some excellent local spots worth discovering: Le Citron, Brackenbury Wine Rooms, and Bertolli Ice Cream Venue in Hammersmith Grove come highly recommended. A friendly laundrette and dry cleaner sit conveniently at the end of the road.

We Love
That view over Brook Green brings a welcome touch of greenery and calm, while the bedroom backing onto the communal garden ensures peaceful nights. The high ceilings and natural light make the space feel generous, and the blend of modern fixtures with characterful artwork gives this flat a personality all its own. Plus, being 30 minutes from Heathrow? That's genuinely handy.

Home Truths:
No smoking, pets or parties. This flat is on the first floor and accessed via a communal entrance and staircase. The bedroom backs onto a communal garden (a bonus for peace and quiet, though you won't have private garden access). To rent this property, the minimum age requirement is 21 years old.

A Wonderful, Cozy Apartment in London

I had an excellent month-long stay here. The property management company made it easy and provided services such as weekly cleans and linen changes that really put it over the top. The location is very near to multiple train lines to take you across London, and you have everything you need within a few blocks. I highly recommend this flat for a stay!
