The Urban Loft

There's a lot to love about this West London loft conversion. First, there's the industrial-inspired design and smart layout. It's spread across two floors (and the stairs can be a little steep), with the living area perched on the top level to maximise natural light. There's also a well-equipped (albeit compact) kitchen, while the dining table can double as a desk if you're in town for business. We also like the location – it's about a thirty-minute train ride from central London, but it has a lot to offer. Kew Gardens and other green spaces are within walking distance, Chiswick's business parks can be reached by bus, and Heathrow is a short drive away.

Home truths:
*This home isn't in central London, so you'll have to utilise public transport to visit the tourist areas. However, it's only a short drive from Heathrow Airport and puts you in a good spot to explore West London.
*There are multiple staircases here, and some of them are open-tread and narrow.
*This apartment is by a busy road, so it can get a bit noisy when the windows are open. However, it's relatively quiet when the windows are closed.
*Unless accompanied by parents, the minimum age limit here is 21 years old.
*Parties and other gatherings are strictly not allowed here.
*If you’re travelling for work, the dining table doubles as a laptop-friendly workspace.
