Description View From The Top: London

Few homes are closer to Covent Garden than this one. Just along a cobbled street from all the restaurants, shops and street performers, it’s a three-floor oasis that even neighbours Paul Smith’s fashion boutique. Things are just as design-focused inside, with Ercol furniture and funky lighting. White-tiled bathrooms and spacious layouts contribute to a restful vibe, one which prolongs on the roof terrace. Accessed by steep steps, the sofas and AstroTurf up here are as escapist as Central London ever gets.

Home truths:
* This property is in the middle of Covent Garden and it can be slightly noisy – both in terms of street noise, and buskers singing
*The heating system isn't the most effective – the upstairs bedrooms can still feel a little chilly
* There are several flights of stairs throughout the property. The stairs leading to the rooftop terrace are especially steep and treacherous.
* Also, please mind your head exiting onto the roof – the door is shorter than normal.
