Characterful, sky-lit writer's loft in Peckham

Greater London, England, United Kingdom
Preferred Destination: New York, New York, United States

Studio or Loft | House Sitting Negotiable
Available Dates:
From July 1, 2024 until December 31, 2024

Description

Our top floor apartment is bright and airy, with a very open flow and feel. The living room and kitchen are south-facing, with 4 metre ceilings and skylights. An archway leads from the living room to the master bedroom (also skylit and beamed), which has a freestanding bath. Along the hallway, there is a study with a desk which has a small double bed, perfect for guests. There's a brand new shower room, also skylit. The kitchen has a washer-dryer, dishwasher, induction oven/stove, fridge and freezer. This is very much our house, so has our possessions in - artwork, books, furniture. For someone who's looking for something entirely spare, this might not be the best choice, but for someone who wants to read, play the piano, have a home ready to go, this is a great fit. As for us, I'm a novelist and my wife works in climate diplomacy.
