Space, light, and quiet in London
Beautiful two-bedroom flat in London's Maida Vale area, a five minute walk from the Bakerloo line and a ten minute train to Euston. Listed building, exposed brick and hardwood floor in kitchen, and a fireplace.<br /><br /><b>The space</b><br />This is a truly special space - and has become one of my favorite things about life in London.  It's spacious and quiet, with high ceilings and large sash windows throughout that usher in rivers of light.  It sits on the first floor of a beautiful, heritage-listed, Italian-style building in Maida Vale.<br /><br />*The kitchen.*  Open plan and newly refurbished with a full range of amenities: fridge/freezer, gas hob, double oven, microwave, dishwasher, and washer/dryer.   You will have use of all crockery and cutlery.  There is hardwood flooring, an exposed brick wall, and a teak table with benches.  The large window in the kitchen overlooks a park at the front the building.<br /><br />*The living room.*  Open plan and integrated with the kitchen.
This flat is in a wonderful part of London - interesting and diverse.  The high street has Sainsburys, M&S, and Tesco, plus numerous independent grocers.  There are a number of nice gastropubs and restaurants in the area.<br /><br />The famous Abbey Road studios are about a ten minute walk away if you fancy paying homage to the Beatles.  I often run to Hampstead Heath and Primrose Hill, which takes me about 15 minutes.  Regent's park is a short walk away, and Paddington Recreation Ground even shorter - where you can use tennis courts, a running track, and a gym.  You'll also be near to Little Venice, where you can enjoy a coffee on a canal boat.
