2 bed Flat For Rent £2,200
Ashmore Road, London, W9

This charming two-bedroom, split-level apartment on the first floor of a Victorian building toes the line between the historic and the contemporary.

A floral stained glass mural crowns the entrance to the reception room, working in tandem with the dark, soil-brown wood floors. The reception room is cosy, with high ceilings, original bay windows and a bituminous period fireplace that begs to be admired.

The secondary bedroom adjoins the reception room. It's a functional, innovative room that inserts an abundance of storage beneath a tiered double bed. It's worth noting here that this apartment may be best suited to a young professional couple who could use the spare bedroom as an office or sleeping nook for guests.

On the lower level is the main bedroom, overlooking tranquil gardens at the rear of the property. Storage is abundant throughout the apartment, but here it is particularly impressive with large, sliding glass fitted wardrobes.

Finally, a white-tiled bathroom glimmers against dressing room-esque lights.

The apartment borders Maida Vale and Queen's Park and sits on a quiet tree lined street.

Queen's Park is a family-friendly residential area with quiet streets of Victorian and Edwardian houses surrounding the park of the same name. Community hub Salusbury Road is lined with indie shops, gastropubs, cafes, and global eateries. The weekly Queen's Park Farmers' Market has organic vegetables, dairy products, and free-range meats.

Maida Vale is an affluent residential district with elegant Victorian houses and wide, quiet roads. Named after the Italian town of Maida in Calabria, the area boasts a rich dining and theatre scene and canalside ambling.
