Duplex apartment in good central location best suited for families with children - sleeps 7*.
* Sleeps a maximum of 5 adults - see description of beds below.  Map

This duplex apartment, between Earl's Court and South Kensington, is on the third and fourth floors (no lift) of a Victorian town house. It's home to a family with 3 young children, he's an author/journalist and she's a family doctor. It's not smart - in fact it's quite lived-in, but it's excellent value for money and ideal for a family with children under 18, with a big plus that you have access to the attractive private garden square.

The accommodation sleeps a maximum of 7 (maximum 5 adults) in one double bedroom, one room with a sofa that converts to a small double, a single bedroom, a room with bunk beds* and a room with a loft bed*. There are two bathrooms. Your nearest tube, within 5 minutes walk, is Gloucester Road (Piccadilly, District and Circle lines).
*Suitable for children or young adults

From the street door two flights of stairs up to the second floor take one to the apartment entrance door. A staircase hung with pictures leads up into the apartment and a book lined landing.

The family living room (20ft6 x 13ft 6, 6.2m x 4.1m) has a 3 seater sofa, 3 armchairs, several occasional chairs, a piano (maybe in need of some tuning), a 42in flat screen, wall mounted TV with digital channels and DVD player.

There's also a stereo system with various CDs. This room has views over the garden square and neighbourhood church.

The apartment has wifi high-speed broadband internet connection.

The kitchen/dining area (16ft6 x 12ft3, 5m x 3.7m) is like another family room. The kitchen has long granite work-tops and all the expected appliances including a microwave, dishwasher, fridge/freezer (which produces ice on tap), washing machine and dryer. The dining table, also granite, has seating for 8.

Also on this floor is a room (15ft x 8ft6, 4.6m x 2.6m) with a sofa which is normally permanently converted into a 4ft6 wide double bed, a single bedroom (not photographed) and a small bathroom with shower, basin and loo.

On the top floor is a double bedroom (15ft6 x 12ft2, 4.75m x 3.7m) with 4ft6 wide bed, and nice views over the garden square.

There are two further bedrooms suitable only for 2 children or young adults, a room with bunk beds and a room with a "loft bed" (a single bed over a small desk/work area).

The main bathroom is on this floor - bath, separate shower, basin and loo.

You are a just a few minutes walk from Gloucester Road with its pubs, cafés and restaurants.
