Large Top-Floor Double Room with En-Suite | Period House | Skyline Views | Garden | Bills Included

A beautifully presented top-floor double bedroom with private en-suite, set within a well-maintained period house and shared with two others.

Occupying the entire upper floor, the room enjoys a wonderful sense of privacy and open views across the London skyline through a striking arched bedroom window. Bright and airy throughout the day, it feels calm and tucked away from the pace of the city below.

The house itself carries a remarkable sense of history. It was once the London residence of Arthur Rimbaud and Paul Verlaine, and this very top-floor room is understood to have been where they stayed during their time here. That history remains part of the character of the space, giving it a distinctive atmosphere that feels both warm and memorable.

The bedroom is generously proportioned and furnished with a super king-size bed, with plenty of space around it. Thoughtfully arranged, it includes a dressing wardrobe, alcove storage, a desk and carefully chosen antique furnishings, creating a room that feels comfortable, individual and full of character.

A lovely period feature is the original cast-iron fireplace in the bedroom, complemented by cast-iron radiators that make the room feel especially warm and inviting through the colder months.

The en-suite is spacious and beautifully finished, with dark slate-style flooring, a walk-in shower, alcove shelving and practical storage below, along with adjustable lighting to suit the mood. It also features its own original cast-iron stove, adding further warmth and character.

The house itself is settled and well looked after, with a comfortable furnished living room, a well-equipped kitchen with excellent storage and workspace, and a separate laundry room.

The garden is a real standout — beautifully maintained and unusually generous for London, with planted borders, seating and fountain features. A peaceful outdoor space that feels tucked away from the city.
