Terraced City View Villa in London

5 guests|3 bedrooms|2 bathrooms

The difference that a masterful use of shape and colour can make is proven beyond all doubt in this one-of-a-kind, three-bedroom home. With its uniquely canopied dining room, dazzling prints, and sumptuous palette, there's something refreshing about the design here that brings a little exoticism to this sleepy street in South-West London. And with the mini oasis of Clapham Common just moments from your front door, complete with speedy Tube links to Central London — a romp into the city is as easy as relaxing on the patio. Your call, but we know where we'd rather be... With an eye for design displayed in every corner, there’s plenty to admire here. The living room is all light-filled, vintage-style glamour, with soft tones, gilded mirror and ruched curtains. As with everything here though, there’s some signature flair interwoven through the artwork — plus that rather arresting, charcoal-coloured sculpture. In terms of vying for attention, the twin bedroom jostles to the front with its striking, burnt umber interiors and intriguing wall hangings. Not to mention that rather irresistibly cushy-looking beds, perfect for a few film nights in. And speaking of film, we think the set design Oscar should go to the dining room. Opening onto the garden and boasting a beautifully canopied ceiling, draped in elegant white folds that magnify the light pouring through the glass — you couldn’t ask for a more ambient spot. Throw in an airy kitchen, complete with breakfast bar, patio doors, and bonus snug area, and you may find eating out starts to lose its appeal. The principal bedroom boasts ample space, a sunshine-yellow ensuite, and a peppering of personality (that ostentatiously high-backed chair being our favourite); whilst the single room is smaller, but delightfully cosy and serenely mellow in yellow. A selection of additional services and items can be ordered through Veeve subject to availability at this property. • Baby cots and high chairs • Early or late check-in and late check-out • Airport pickups and private transfers • Bespoke welcome packs • Mid stay housekeeping • Fresh towel and linen changes • Additional bedding or pillows We love… Everyone adores a pristine garden, especially one with perfectly preened flower beds & ivy-clad walls. But the general design flair evinced, well, everywhere, edges it for us. It’s tricky to pick a favourite, but the gold-flecked bathroom with its uniquely textured stone basin is high on our list, as is the penchant for Moroccan-inspired prints. Home truths: No smoking/vaping, pets or parties. Please note this property has x2 portable air conditioning units for the two larger bedrooms and a fan for the single room. The kitchen and dining area has a built in air conditioning unit. This home is set over three floors with step access - the third floor will be closed off with no guest access. You'll find a laundry room downstairs, complete with washing machine and tumble dryer. There's underfloor heating throughout, plus a gas fireplace for winter. In the kitchen you'll find the chef's holy grail - an electric Aga. Hosting by Veeve We will personally welcome you on arrival, help you settle in, and share local recommendations.
