Historic modernist apartment in St John’s Wood (5 mins by train to Euston)

Description

A stunning, light-filled 2 bed modernist penthouse apartment on the historic Alexandra and Ainsworth Estate. Centrally located in St Johns Wood, just off the iconic Abbey Road. Close to transport connections: South Hampstead overground, 6 mins walk away, is 1 stop to Euston Station; Swiss Cottage, St John's Wood or Kilburn Park tube are also nearby. Lots to explore in the immediate vicinity; Primrose Hill, Hampstead Heath and Regent's Park are walking distance. Featuring open-plan sitting and dining room full of modernist artworks, designer furniture and books; well-equipped kitchen, with dishwasher, gas cooker and fridge; large terrace with stunning London views; 2 large bedrooms and toilet/bathroom. Original features and contemporary design touches throughout. I would prefer to rent the home to a scholar, artist, architect or anyone else who appreciates the value of the place - both on the level of its architecture as well as the community it's situated in. I have many wonderful and interesting neighbours and I am sure they would also be happy to connect with you and meet you. The flat has ideal conditions for reading and writing, including a desk looking out onto the terrace and the London skyline beyond; and two more desks positioned by windows in each of the flat's bedrooms. There is some noise from railway tracks running behind the property, but it's quite manageable. With the windows closed, the noise is reduced to an occasional whoosh. Please note: the property will be available for four months in the first instance and is let is furnished. A discount may be offered to tenants who agree to keep one of the two bedrooms available for occasional use by me -- to be discussed.
