They say it's in the little things and this home has plenty of delectable details that we just love. And the kitchen certainly combines some of our favourites, including a gorgeous feature wall in dappled turquoise, a comfy corner sofa basking in the light of the ample glass windows overlooking the garden, and a sleek, light-drenched kitchen, featuring a striking kitchen island in mirroring turquoise tones. And when you're onto a good colour palette, why not stay with it? You can spot thoughtful accents of blue throughout, whether it's illuminated by a well-placed skylight in the stairwell, or in one of the stylishly sleek bathrooms. The living room and dining area are set to 'casual comfort', with a blend of textures, cushy sofas, and wooden dining table. Three of the bedrooms stick to this setting too, lifted by splashes of colour and ample space. We Love We're big fans of the TV room, where slouchy sofas and a large Smart TV will have no problem luring you into a few relaxed nights in. If the sun pokes out at all though, we'd highly recommend flinging open the kitchen doors and enjoying the garden, whether that be stretching out on the lawn with a good book, or tucking into an... Home Truths: No smoking, pets, or parties! This home is set over three floors, with air conditioning throughout. The fourth bedroom features a single bed on a little mezzanine in the attic. There's a utility room with a washing machine and tumble dryer. The kitchen features a double oven with an exciting (we think) pizza and rotisserie setting. The TV room could double up as a handy playroom for children. There's table tennis available in the garden. One room (not pictured) will be locked with no guest access. The host has a friendly cat who'll be around during your stay, but she can be re-homed on request for any bookings of 7 days or more with enough notice. A double bed will be added to the mezzanine room for an extra two guests, meaning this home can sleep eight in total.

Beautiful Barnes is just down the road from Putney and leads towards Richmond. There are a number of exceptional 18th and 19th century buildings in and around its historic village which is centred on the pond, forming the Barnes Village conservation area. Barnes Common is a local nature reserve and an important open space spanning 120 acres. It provides a rural setting to the village and a wealth of habitats including acid grassland, scrub, woodland and wetland which were turned into a wetland habitat and bird sanctuary in 1995 called the London Wetland. Like Putney, Barnes boasts a rock and roll history with the former Olympic Studios on Church Road playing host to many of rock and pop's greatest stars throughout the decades. From The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, right through to modern day Coldplay and Madonna. Neighbouring Putney lies just south of the river and is full of leafy, quiet roads and green areas. Putney Heath is the biggest outdoor area and this borders Wimbledon common which in turn spills over to Richmond Park and beyond which makes for beautiful secluded walks. Along the river are the famous boathouses and tow paths where you can take a wander down the banks of the Thames and all the way to Chiswick and Richmond along the shaded gravel paths! This is also the starting location for the historic Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race, which started in 1829 and now takes place every year before Easter with people lining the banks to cheer on the teams – an incredibly exciting event which takes over South West London every year! The high street in Putney has many nice pubs and restaurants and even hosts a farmers market at the weekend. Along the river front near Putney Bridge there are some pubs offering more upmarket dining such as The Boathouse, The Star & Garter as well as the Half Moon Pub, which is one of London’s longest running music venues and has ignited the careers of many now famous musicians.
