Perks for the Parents

A light-filled, contemporary conversion set on a peaceful residential street, walking distance to the upmarket shops, cafes and restaurants of both Parsons Green village and Fulham Broadway. It sleeps 3+1. Converted from a carpentry workshop, this characterful residence retains its lofty beamed ceilings and raw brickwork, adding plenty of modern skylights to create an inviting, airy base ideal for relaxing after a busy day in the city. For warmer days there’s an outdoor terrace with a bijou table and chairs, ideal for enjoying a moment’s peace with a cup of coffee. The location is perfect for enjoying laid back local days amongst time exploring the wider city with many excellent parks, gastro pubs and chic village cafes on the doorstep as well as a palace and a football stadium. For guests wanting to explore further afield, there are 2 tube stations just 8 minutes’ walk away, providing fast access to the boutiques and restaurants of Chelsea, the world-famous museums of South Kensington and the wider city.

Why Kids Love it

Kids will enjoy the relaxed feel of this loft style apartment with its statement lounge, perfect for chilling in and catching up with a latest series or movie. Little ones will have plenty of space to run off steam in local Eel Brook common just 10 minutes’ walk away. Sports fans of all ages are well catered for with Stamford Bridge and Craven Cottage football stadiums within easy reach, alongside a polo and rugby club, all hosting live events throughout the year. Exploring further afield is just as easy with Parsons Green and Fulham Broadway stations just 8 minutes’ walk away providing easy access to Kensington for the Natural History, Science and V&A museums, as well as the Diana memorial playground at Kensington gardens. For a fun, alternative mode of travel to the city, kids might enjoy catching the Thames Clipper boat from Chelsea pier, an 8-minute drive or 29-minute walk away.

Things to Know

The single bedroom can accommodate one additional person on the pull out bed. Please let the host team know how you would like the room to be set up for your stay. As there is no permanent storage in both the master bedroom and the single bedroom, we will provide a hanging rail and a collapsible shelves for your stay. Off-road parking is available at the home, but only for smaller hatchback cars as the parking space isn't the biggest. This home has air-conditioning in the both bedrooms and the sitting room. Between May and September, we will provide fans for each room that needs it. Please let us know if you'd like fans outside the summer period. This home is spread over two floors with no internal elevator.

About the Location

The residence is located on a quiet residential road in the heart of affluent Fulham, between Parsons Green and Fulham Broadway. The ‘village’ shops, restaurants, pubs and cafes of the former are under a 10-minute walk from the residence offering an eclectic mix of laid back and sophisticated dining. Fulham Broadway, 9 minutes on foot, is a bustling area with upmarket grocery stores such as Waitrose and Whole Foods Market, making it easy for those who wish to cook at home. Eel Brook common with its playgrounds, football/basketball courts and green space is 4 minutes by car or a 10 minute walk. There are 2 football stadiums, and a polo club a 10-minute drive or 20 minutes’ walk away for those looking for some live sport action. The River Thames footpaths with access to Bishops park and its playground and skate park, and Fulham Palace are a 15 minute walk or 5 minute car journey. For access to central London, Parsons Green and Fulham Broadway tube stations - on the District line – are both 8 minutes’ walk.

Style Notes

Loft living. This contemporary conversion incorporates features from its workshop past to create a quirky, airy space with an industrial but cozy feel. The high pitched ceiling, raw brickwork and beams combine with sky lights and large glass windows and doors to create an airy, relaxed environment. Artworks and textiles add soft pops of color and the handcrafted floorboards create a homely softness to the living and sleeping areas. We love the traces of the residence’s working past, combined with smart modern touches for ultimate comfort. The bijou terrace space is a welcome addition, offering the perfect spot to enjoy a peaceful morning coffee.

Fulham, London

Parks, football and the Sloaney Pony

This upmarket West London neighborhood is leafy and affluent with a gastro pub on every corner and several parks. It’s easy to get into central London from here - just six stops on the District line - and it has a sprinkle of wizarding magic as the place where Harry Potter actor Daniel Radcliffe grew up.
