In the lottery of London locations, you've struck gold if you land near Earl's Court, with its electric atmosphere, lively bars and eateries, and excellent Tube connections. With London's top museums up the road, including the National History and Victoria & Albert museums; and cultural heavyweights like Kensington, Hyde Park, and Chelsea on the doorstep, there's never a dull moment. But what you really need amidst all this excitement is a tranquil little oasis to recharge in, ideally on a quieter corner in a splendid Georgian townhouse... Enter this slick pied à terre.

Despite its beautifully vintage exterior, this apartment is masterfully modern throughout, with a winning blend of clean simplicity and designer detail. A bright, open-plan living space encompasses an immaculate little kitchen, complete with breakfast bar, and a comfy living area with velvety accents and a handy dining table for those chilled evenings in. Both double bedrooms combine intricate illustrated wallpaper — the standout being those oriental-inspired golden panels.

Consistency is key — which is why we love the little daubs of dark forest green dotted around this home. And if you're planning to explore the city at large or you're flying in from Heathrow, you couldn't be better placed — with speedy connections on the Piccadilly and District Lines.
