Vacation Rental Description

This vacation house is ideal for couples and families looking to explore london from a central base. Here in historic st pancras, you are in the heart of london, but the quiet residential street is away from the crowds. Built in the 1830s, the house has been restored to retain its victorian features and polished wooden floors, but fully modernised to include an architect-designed kitchen, luxury bathroom with steam room and in-built cd stereo, air-con in the master bedroom and a charming patio garden. New to the vacation rentals market, it has been recently decorated with input from an interior designer and has some new furnishings and plenty of wow factor. There is a considerable library of books, dvds and videos and original artworks hang on the walls.

the house is laid out over four storeys, starting on the lower ground floor, you find the fully fitted designer kitchen (5-ring hob & oven, microwave, chrome fridge/freezer with ice maker, dishwasher, coffee machine and plenty of crockery, glass and tableware). There is a separate utility room (washing machine and separate tumble dryer), and a family living area with sofa and armchair (folds into a single bed). This leads to a dining area which has an extendable table to seat 8. Huge double doors fold back to open the entire space onto the patio garden area which is paved and beautifully planted with table and seating for outdoor dining; it makes a lovely outdoor spot for a meal or a quiet drink. Steps lead to the upper garden area and a gate to the communal garden area. The shared communal garden is private to the street and cannot be accessed by the public. It is an extraordinary haven from the busy city with plentiful trees, planting, lawns and wildlife. There is a very safe children's play area with climbing frames and slides.

coming back into the house walk up to the ground floor and on your way pass the shower room (power shower, basin and toilet) on a mezzanine level. On the ground floor you find a large open plan living room with wooden floors, traditional fireplace, leather sofa, armchair (folds into single bed), tv, dvd, video, cd stereo, desk and library including books on art, architecture, local interest and novels. Double doors open to a balconied terrace with seating and views of the gardens. Upstairs to the first floor leads to a double bedroom with queen-sized double bed (5 feet wide), storage and traditional fireplace and also another double bedroom with queen-sized double bed and storage, which looks out over the gardens below. At the top of the house on the second floor you will find the master bedroom with its queen-sized double bed (5 feet wide), air-conditioning, cd stereo and tv. A large bathroom with roll top bath, wc, sink and separate double steam room (seating for two) and multi powered shower unit. There is an inbuilt cd stereo system in the steamroom.
