London Apartment - 3 Bedroom Rental in Earls Court, South Kensington (LN-374)

This three bedroom rental is located on Earls Court Gardens off Earls Court Road in the borough of Kensington & Chelsea in central London. It is on the 1st and 2nd floor of a converted period townhouse with no elevator. The upstairs maisonette is carpeted throughout with the exception of the kitchen, bathroom, and cloakroom which has parquet flooring.  This maisonette has a homely traditional period charm which is reflected in the décor and furnishings.

The living room is furnished with neutral coloured (pastel shade) wall paper, with an assortment of armchairs and sofas facing the cable TV. The dining room, with a table for 6 and a stereo, is great for enjoying your home-cooked meals and has a serving hatch so food can be passed directly through from the kitchen piping hot. Crockery and cutlery are provided. The kitchen is well-equipped with an oven, gas stove, microwave, fridge/freezer, coffee machine, washing machine, and toaster. There is also an extractor hood directly above the gas hobs on the cooker ensuring strong cooking smells do not spread beyond the kitchen inconveniencing other people. There is also a fibre optic connection to the Internet with 200mb download, a HiFi System and Q Acoustic speakers.

The master bedroom is furnished with two single beds that can be brought together to make a king size bed, a dresser topped by a mirror and a chest of drawers, as well as fitted cupboards. Additionally there is a Philips midi music system in the Master Bedroom. A music system in the bedroom is a great asset providing music and news programs at night prior to sleep and on waking to catch up with the world. The 2nd bedroom has two single beds capable of being brought together to make a king size bed and is also furnished with fitted cupboards for storage, a desk and a mirror. In the 3rd bedroom you'll find a single divan bed, a small wardrobe and a dressing table with mirror. The bathroom has a bath, a wall-mounted shower, a washbasin, a toilet, a bidet, and is conveniently situated on the landing between the first and second floors. A separate WC is available downstairs.

A single folding camping bed can be brought in temporarily if required and is typically installed in the dining room. There is an ancillary charge for this item.

The Earls Court area around this London rental is teeming with restaurants, bars, and grocery stores, with two supermarkets within easy walking distance. The maisonette is also conveniently close to Hyde Park and the museums around South Kensington such as the Natural History Museum and the Science Museum. There is a gym in nearby Kenway Road; as well as another a short bus ride away in Kensington High Street for those needing a daily workout. A branch of the PAUL French bakery chain has opened nearby, also at the end of the street, selling delicious French bread, cakes and sandwiches - so no excuse not to have fresh croissants with your morning coffee!

The nearest underground station to this 3 bedroom rental is Earl's Court which is extremely convenient and approximately 2 minutes away on foot. The underground line serves the District and Piccadilly lines.

FRENCH is also spoken.

Please note:  Although the maisonette is situated opposite the local underground, it is separated from it by a high wall. The subway is barely audible from the maisonette and it does not operate between 1:00am and 5:30am and there is a choice of a rear-facing garden double-bedroom or front-facing bedrooms.

UPDATE: Front facing bedrooms now have modern snug fitting windows with acoustic suppressant glass whereas the rear facing bedroom has double glazed windows reducing outside noise. In addition a new development opposite has the added benefit of deflecting noise from the underground which, previously, had been disclosed by some as shown in reviews from previous years.
