Description Charcoal & Oak: London

This Victorian terraced house in Crouch End has undergone a sharp contemporary overhaul. The kitchen is the heart of the home, where glass doors open onto the terrace, making it easy to drift between cooking, eating, and the garden depending on the mood. When evening draws in, a separate lounge offers a quieter retreat. Upstairs are two bedrooms, including a stylish main suite, while the garden room with a sofa bed provides extra space for guests. Crouch End's boutiques, eateries and pubs are within easy reach, as are Alexandra Park's sweeping views and Hampstead Heath's famous ponds.

Home truths:
* The third bedroom is an annexe in the garden. It has a sofa bed and can sleep two guests. It has heating, TV, wi-fi, and a separate WC. Guests in this room will need to use one of the bathrooms in the main house to shower.
* Guests have access to all areas of the home, apart from the third bedroom in the loft. It will be locked during your stay.
* There is one parking space on the property, though you won't need a car in London.
