An informal contemporary look with restful colours.
Receptions
A mews is a unique feature of the historic residential areas of London, a lane of smaller buildings that runs along the back of a grand terrace, originally designed to house coaches and horses and those who looked after them. Many mews houses have been converted into delightful homes that benefit from being off the main streets but still in the heart of an exclusive neighbourhood. In this one the ground floor has become a bright and inviting living/dining room with good lighting and windows front and back, in soft colours with interesting fabrics and some exotic touches. Inviting twin sofas face the working fireplace and beyond is the dining area with a glass topped table for four and a wonderfully curly side table in front of the tall windows. There is an LCD TV with a selection of cable channels with a pay-to-view facility. Broadband Internet is provided.
Kitchen
The streamlined kitchen has been cleverly organised to give maximum workspace and includes an electric hob and oven, fridge/freezer, microwave and dishwasher. The washing machine is in a cupboard under the stairs.
Bedrooms
Two comfortable and quiet bedrooms, both on the upper floor. The large master bedroom has a brass double bed and good built-in cupboards, while the smaller bedroom at the rear of the house has a good sized double bed and a chest of drawers.
Bathrooms
The brand new bathroom, tiled in natural stone, has a stylish double wash basin, a full sized tub with wall attached shower and a loo.
