This apartment positively glows. We fell in love with the architectural design; the gold-coated lightbulbs, honey hue of wood, and gorgeous period features, such as the stone columns supporting soaring ceilings and the gothic arches featuring stained glass windows. Both the open-plan living area and the master bedroom extend onto an enclosed private space, blending indoors with outdoors. Feel a sense of calm wash over you while you sip your morning coffee or read a book outside on a sunny afternoon. A few more touches are downright divine. Take the underfloor heating, for example, or the abundant storage space — here you can easily unpack half a dozen suitcases and still add something more from your shopping sprees around London. Whip up a feast in the fully-equipped kitchen or hop off to nearby Salusbury Road and tickle your taste buds with a sinfully wide variety of international cuisines. Within a ten-minute radius, you can also find three underground and overground stations for easy access to virtually any part of the capital. You couldn't pray for a better place to call home for a while.
