Property information

Our Penthouse is the absolute crowning glory of number 39, with its high vaulted ceilings and exquisitely decorated rooms, this apartment must be seen to be believed. The unique and charming design throughout the Penthouse is reflective of its owner, a well-known property designer in the area, with each room offering a contrasting taste and a meticulous attention to detail. With the perfect balance between modern design and homely comfort, we feel this is the only way to stay in London. Ideal for large groups and families looking to explore central London, the property caters for up to 10 guests. Situated across three floors the Penthouse boasts a rooftop balcony with unbeatable views overlooking the British Museum, as well as an outdoor patio accessed from the kitchen, providing the perfect space for al fresco dining in the afternoon sun. The three large bedrooms are located on the second floor of the apartment. The two larger bedroom have their own en-suites each with a shower/bathtub. There is also a shared bathroom with shower on the landing for the third bedroom.

Neighbourhood information

Bloomsbury is the literary centre of London, JK Rowling’s publisher is just around the corner. It has some great restaurants, Coffee shops and is overlooking the British Museum one of the most iconic museums in the world. The great benefit of Bloomsbury is when the Museum closes tourists tend to disperse, and you get to experience a more personable London with many locals still living in the area. If you want some fun: world renowned Soho is a 5-minute walk away where you have more, bars, restaurants, clubs.
