Historic, romantic church home in a London village
An apartment you'll never forget:<br /><br />- 1000 sq ft of space including an outdoor terrace located on the church roof<br /><br />- furnished with beautiful designer furniture and original artwork<br /><br />- stunning features: stained glass windows, huge beams & spiral staircase to the church tower<br /><br />- situated in Highgate, one of London's most historic, picturesque historic "villages", now absorbed into the city <br /><br />- 1 master bedroom (King size bed) but can accommodate up to 6 on airbed & sofa bed in other rooms<br /><br /><b>The space</b><br />Perhaps one of the most unique Airbnb spaces in London: read in a church tower, have brunch on a terrace on the church roof, relax in the huge living room as the light streams through the stained glass.<br /><br />The church is also equipped with an Internet connected SONOS sound system in all rooms which is connected to Spotify. I'll set you up on it so you can enjoy your favourite music and feel really at home.<br /><b
If you would like to experience a beautiful, idyllic and romantic spot in London, you'll adore Highgate: one of London's loveliest old villages.<br /><br />The village has some of London's most authentic and historic pubs and a stunning high street of period buildings and old yards. <br /><br />Right opposite is Waterlow Park, with views over London and a lake set in the grounds of 16th century Waterlow House (the house is currently being restored but the park is open). <br /><br />Across the park is London's most famous cemetery: Highgate Cemetery. The cemetery provides guided tours and is the final resting place of many influential figures in British history and famously, Karl Marx.
I work in tech and am Founder and CEO of Beam - a social enterprise that crowdfunds employment training for people experiencing homelessness. Search for it!

Before that I was CEO of a sharing economy business called JustPark - think Airbnb but for parking. I also wrote a book on the sharing economy which includes interviews with the founders of companies like Airbnb, Zipcar and others. It's called The Business of Sharing if you're interested. There are some copies in my flat if you'd like to have a read. 

Looking forward to meeting some good people from all over the world!
Alex
