Duplex Architect Designed Loft
2300sqf converted loft space with fun features, excellent location and attention to detail in design and furnishings. Suitable for kids. A characterful home away from home with lots of original features and contemporary touches.<br /><br /><b>The space</b><br />We live here and are used to others living in our space as we normally swap homes (lovehome swap- in you want to check for reviews of us), so this is not normally available for rent.<br />People like this space as its quite rare to have an open space of this size right in the city. The place is more lived in than suggested in the photos and we have accumulated a lot more art and more furniture as well. Its extremely comfortable as I believe a home should be; not to mention a lot of fun for adults and children alike. Its a ground and basement space which opens out into a small patio area. There are 4 bedrooms in total but we normally only let/swap 3 of them as the 4th is our nanny's room (she won't be around!). So its a super kin
If you're looking at this listing, you probably have an idea of what this place can offer. Extremely exciting, very energetic, creative, some of the best eats and brilliant to get lost in the streets. Lots of galleries, pop up shops, theatre (sadler wells and barbican, west end delights), old and new architecture and a ghost like city during weekends (try walking around bank area when its the weekend!). London Bridge and St Paul are within a half hour walk or short bus/tube ride.
I'm part of a professional couple with 2 lovely girls born in 2008 and 2009. Dan's American and I'm Malaysian. We live in Old Street, Central London and normally do home swaps (do check our reviews on love home swap). This Christmas, we're heading home and so have decided to offer our place to others.
We're easy going, like to eat and cook, love architecture and art. However we are both in science so living here has been a great balance to our lifestyle. It is surprisingly child friendly with Regent's canal a short walk away, lots of parks, the Barbican centre and the London museum all within walking distance. Tons of exceptional coffee places, little cafes, street markets, shopping etc.
I'm currently setting up an age management practice and you're likely to find a rather curious blend of hormone/nutrition/medical books along side vintage clothing books. Lots of toys for kids and plenty of books. Its a personal home and I invite you to share it as a cultural and artistic experience.
