1 room flat of 41m² in London

On the second floor of a handsome white-stucco terrace, this studio apartment makes the most of its position. Light floods in through tall sash windows, looking out to views across the rooftops of South Kensington. Generous ceiling heights and original cornicing run throughout, while a cleverly conceived layout ensures every inch works hard. The main living space is versatile, effortlessly shifting between rest and relaxation. It’s centred by a double bed and flanked by desks, with a sitting area opposite. Just beyond, a separate kitchen sits within its own light-filled bay, crowned by a roof lantern that floods the space with sun. Integrated appliances sit alongside plenty of storage space, plus a dining area and bistro table tucked into the bay of the window. Elsewhere, a smartly appointed family bathroom features a bathtub with an overhead shower.
