Description Crowned London: London

With its Shoreditch location, this home is close to plenty of restaurants, cafes, boutiques, and galleries. Other nearby places of interest include Brick Lane and Spitalfields Market, with its eclectic stalls. Now, there’s no denying that this home, which is on two levels, has a minimalist vibe. But it’s modern and fresh, so it’s the ideal pad for a group of friends or business colleagues. There’s a well-equipped kitchen if you don’t fancy eating out, and two of the four bedrooms have en-suites, too.

Home truths:
*Getting eight around the dining table might be a squeeze, but there are two more seats at the breakfast bar.
*Your host can provide a high chair if you're travelling with little ones. You'll need to request it in advance.
*The minimalist look here won't appeal if you prefer a lived-in vibe.
