Description Pink Pampas Grass: London

Open the bifold doors from the gorgeous, light kitchen into the sunny garden – it's the perfect spot to enjoy some alfresco dining. Inside, the large living room's dark, dramatic hues show off the period fireplace to a tee – watch the world go by from the bay window seat or read a book here – there are plenty to choose from.

We adore the original corniced ceiling, herringbone wood floors and plush velvet chairs. If you want to keep up your fitness regime, there's a private gym too.

Or go for a jog around Clapham Common, around 100 metres away – it's one of London's largest, and oldest public open spaces. Then go for lunch at one of the many eateries nearby. Culture lovers, on the other hand, can head to the Battersea Arts Centre, just over fifteen minutes on foot.
