Rosebery Gemstone

Are bathrooms important? Then this white-walled charmer could be the flat for you. Although smaller than most Plum homes, it still boasts a spa-like sanctuary whose tiled walls enclose a freestanding tub, walk-in rainfall shower, TV and luxury toiletries. A palpable style is evident throughout – just look at those kitchen jars – as are natural light and Sonos audio coverage. There’s no proper dining table but it doesn’t matter: Exmouth Market, visible from your deck-terrace, has heaps of acclaimed restaurants.

Home truths:
*The living room and kitchen isn't the biggest
*The kitchen lacks some basic cooking essentials
*The living space faces quite a busy street so there might be some noise
*There is no proper dining table – only a breakfast bar in the kitchen
*You may hear occasional footsteps from the apartment above
*There are a lot of lovely restaurants nearby so you should expect food smells to reach the apartment
*The hot water system and wi-fi can be temperamental here
*It's worth noting that the mattresses are on the firmer side
*You'll need to be able to climb stairs to reach the entrance of the home – it may not be the best fit for those with reduced mobility
*You'll likely need some extra towels
*The blind in the bedroom could use replacing
