Comfort in Kensington, by Veeve
About
A charming and comfortable terrace home with vibrant vintage interiors furnished in an easy, modern style, and space for 6 guests. Situated on a quiet leafy street in West Kensington within a short distance of West Kensington underground, buzzing Hammersmith and scenic walks along the Thames. Access up a small flight of steps up to the front door in the style of a classic London town house. LIVING AREA First on the left as you enter the ground floor of this plush four storey house, is a large, beautifully furnished living room. Three large sofas, two fireplaces and a flat screen TV provide ultimate comfort for an evening in, whilst the two big windows either side offering views of the street and garden ensure the room is a bright and airy place to relax in the day too. Well-stocked bookshelves and handsome wood furniture provide a traditional English feel, whilst splashes of teal and mauve upholstery and colourful art above the fireplaces give it a modern flair. STUDY A small tranquil room set back on the ground floor with a desk and nice garden views. KITCHEN/DINING AREA Downstairs on the lower ground floor is a large open-plan room with French patio doors opening on to the garden behind. The kitchen area includes a big fridge/freezer, an electric induction hob, oven, dishwasher and a spacious kitchen island with two chairs. White units and marble surfaces create a sleek, modern look. Towards the garden entrance is a large polished wood table with chairs upholstered in royal blue. UTILITY Next door is a small, compact utility room, complete with washing machine, sink and WC. GARDEN The garden offers a relaxing haven at the back of the house. Two steps up lead you to a raised patio with a table and seating for 6. The space is ensconced by a trellis fence and bordered by plants. MAIN BATHROOM Upstairs on the first floor is a modern-furnished bathroom with bath and shower, WC and sink. FIRST BEDROOM A double bed with lovely views onto the garden creates a luxury first-floor bedroom. There are two large wardrobes and a chest of drawers offering a good amount of storage space. SECOND BEDROOM A king-sized double with a blue/grey colour theme, this room also offers ample storage space with a wall-length three door wardrobe and chest of drawers. The mirrored doors on the wardrobes and two windows with lovely street views create a wonderfully light and airy room. Quirky book shelves and the antique drawers create a smart vintage look. MASTER BEDROOM Up another flight of stairs on the second floor in a large attic space, is the master bedroom. Two windows and light-coloured interiors brighten the space. There is a king-sized bed, a wardrobe and drawers. ENSUITE BATHROOM Next to the master bedroom is a bathroom with elegant marble fittings. A vintage bath with hand-held shower head is accompanied by a double sink, WC and large attic window to let in the light. Home Truths: No smoking, pets or parties! Steps up to porch and four floors within means unsuitable for those with limited access. There is also a camp bed available for temporary visitors. The homeowners' cleaner, Magda, comes every other Thursday at midday for 4 hours and will let herself in.
