Description

I am a writer living in a large Arts & Crafts house where for many years my husband, a composer, our sons and I have made music, art and written books, entertained and enjoyed nearby Hampstead Heath, Primrose Hill and Regents Park. After a recent refurbishment, presently as sole occupant I am offering the largest bedroom (23.m2) on the ground floor with three windows, high ceilings and an excellent adjustable electric double bed. A dedicated bathroom, comprising shower, loo and basin is on the same floor as the kitchen and dining area leading to the 100 metre well stocked sun-trap garden. This is one of the prime residential areas of London, a favorite of stars and artists. Just 4 minutes up the road is Haverstock Hill with pubs, boutiques, supermarkets, bakeries, cafes, organic greengrocer, bookshop, restaurants, cinema, hairdresser, tennis club, and other amenities including buses and Belsize Park Station (Northern Line). Further up the hill is Hampstead Village with the Camden Arts Centre, galleries, Flask Walk antique market, pubs and Cinema. Downhill from the house Chalk Farm, the Round house and Camden Market, centre of daytime and nighttime entertainment around the Regents Canal. A ten minute walk takes one to Swiss Cottage (Jubilee Line), Hampstead Theatre, Swiss Cottage Library and the cinema and shops on Finchley Rd. Several PhDs have been completed in the creative ambience of this house by mature students as it is within easy reach of the British Library and the London Universities and the Courtauld Institute. I would be happy to welcome another academic. Electricity, heating, water, rates, wifi and all utilities are included in the monthly rent of £1100.
