About this property

Your Place in Little Venice; Live like a Londoner just 15 Minutes from West End

Live like a Londoner. The flat has its own entrance as originally it was a corner shop.

The open plan living/dining/kitchen is at ground level with a decorative fireplace. The kitchen is fully stocked for cooking, if you wish. It has an oven, microwave, gas hob with extractor fan, dishwasher, fridge, freezer. There are two stools for eating at a counter.

A few steps down to the two bedrooms and shower room (with toilet and basin) and en suite bathroom (Shower over tub, basin, toilet and bidet).

The master bedroom, with en suite, can be arranged as a King bed (6ft/1.8m wide) or as two extra long twin beds. It opens onto a small patio where you can enjoy your morning coffee or an evening drink. Smoking is allowed on the patio.

The other bedroom has a Queen bed (5 1/2 ft/1.5m wide bed).

The living room has a sleeper sofa for one person.

The dining room seats 6.

The entire flat is about 900 ft 2 (80 square meters).

This is a non-smoking, non-pet flat.

We provide some items for your arrival but you will probably have to get more, especially for stays of more than a few days. Items include shower gel, hand wash, toilet paper, paper towel, dishwasher tabs, dishwashing liquid, tea, coffee, oil & vinegar.

We have a crib and high chair for use at no charge, upon request. Due to the nature of the decoration, the flat is okay for 2-5 year olds only if they are well behaved. It'll save you from constantly running after them.

Wonderful stay in apartment close to Paddington Station

My family had a wonderful stay at Joel's apartment. The apartment is clean, spacious and close to Paddington Station (underground and train). Note that there's a small flight of steps that must be taken to get to the bedrooms and bathrooms. My family was welcomed by Joel into the apartment and he was kind enough to let us check in early with an introduction to the apartment. As the apartment is located off the main road, you'll get a good night's sleep! Thank you again Joel for letting us stay in your apartment; we had a great time here.

Loved It!

Loved staying in this flat, really felt like coming home. A sanctuary after big days (and nights) out in London. We mostly used the tube, a few minutes walk to both Paddington and Edgeware Rd stations. We used 7-day travel cards which also gave us lots of 2-4-1 deals to attractions. M&S, Sainsbury's and Waitrose all convenient. We often picked up something to heat in the oven for dinner on our way home. Very comfortable for family of 4, including 18 & 21yr-old sons - lots of TV stations for a night in. Good Wi-Fi. Big bonus being able to separate king size bed into 2 singles, and having 2 bathrooms. Owner great to deal with, very helpful. Used the car service recommended by owner to Heathrow - punctual and for 4 of us very cost-effective. And just in case you're a cricket tragic, this flat is only 15 mins walk to Lord's!

Highly Recommended!

Perfectly located … 5 minute walk to the Tube. Beautifully outfitted London flat. Super comfortable beds. Everything you could need in well equipped kitchen. Updated bathrooms. Bright and well lit. Ground floor and no stairs. Netflix for a holiday movies at the end of a busy day of sightseeing. Joel was just a phone call away if we needed help. We all agreed, we couldn’t have picked a better place to stay.

Good base in London

Quiet residential areas about a ten minute walk north of Paddington with easy access to both Edgware Road tube stations. The apartment had everything we needed. Kitchen was great for coffee and a quick snack-we didn't cook any meals there. Both bathrooms had showers. Beds were comfortable. There weren't a lot of shops or restaurants within a couple of blocks, however, there were plenty within a ten minutes walk. Taxi fares to Mayfair, Soho, and Kensington were about 20 pounds and short drives. It was nice to come back to this apartment after dinner and have space to spread out and relax.

London Baby!

My family and I stayed at Joel's property during our first trip to London. We were thrilled with the property and the location. The house was better than advertised! It was clean, the size was perfect for a family of 4 and very centrally located. It's a less than 10 min walk to Paddington Station, restaurants and a grocery store. Check in process was super easy, Joel's communication was quick and clear. I highly recommend Joel's flat to anyone looking for a great place to stay while visiting London! - Katie

About the host

Why they chose this property

The flat used to be a corner shop. It still has the stained glass windows with farm scenes. As I grew up on a dairy farm there was some resonance for me.

I was looking for a project and this house had to be completely redone. I have enjoyed doing it up, while learning the history of the area and the type of construction typical to London in the mid-19th century.

What makes this property unique

You'll like the location as it is central to the best parts of London. The area is quiet and residential but close to shops and restaurants.

We hope you, like other guests, will feel very comfortable in a flat that is like a home, much more than a rental flat or a hotel room.
