Calder & Cream

This top-floor flat in Shepherds Bush embraces the functionality, simplicity, and style of Scandi design. It's bright and relatively laid-back, with colourful artwork adding a splash of personality. A compact kitchen has just enough room to rustle up a meal, which is best enjoyed around the cosy banquette. The second bedroom is a little snug, but it does have a pull-out trundle ideal for little ones. As for location, you'll be a ten-minute stroll from Westfield Shopping Centre and about a five-minute walk from Wood Lane Station, with its links to Notting Hill, Paddington and central London.
