Description

I'm renting out my comfortable, fully furnished studio on Achilles Road, a quiet residential street lined with elegant period houses in West Hampstead. Overlooking the back garden, the flat is exceptionally peaceful, making it a welcoming place to read, write and unwind during a research visit or academic stay. Very fast, stable fibre internet makes working from home and video calls easy. ** Excellent connections to London’s universities and libraries ** The flat is extremely well connected by public transport. West Hampstead Thameslink is approximately a 10-minute walk away, with fast trains reaching St Pancras in around six minutes, followed by a short walk to the British Library. Buses and West Hampstead’s Jubilee line and London Overground stations provide further convenient connections across the city. Euston Square is also easily reached by Tube, providing convenient access to UCL and the wider Bloomsbury academic quarter, including Senate House Library, SOAS and Birkbeck. The University of Westminster’s central London campuses are also readily accessible. **A peaceful neighbourhood with plenty nearby** West Hampstead has a relaxed, village-like atmosphere, with attractive residential streets close to the lively cafés, bakeries, restaurants, pubs, bars and shops of West End Lane. Hampstead Heath is within easy reach for a walk, a run or a picnic. **The apartment** Located on the first floor of a house comprising of three apartments, the studio is accessed by stairs. Hard wood flooring and thoughtful furnishings create a homely space, with shelving dividers giving the sleeping area a sense of separation from the rest of the room. The main room includes a bed, sofa, two shelving units/room dividers, a chest of drawers and a table with two chairs for dining or laptop work. The kitchen area offers plenty of cupboard space and all the essentials: a washing machine, hob, fan oven, extractor hood, microwave, toaster and fridge/freezer. A separate bathroom includes a bathtub with an overhead shower and a heated towel rail. The small entrance hallway has coat hooks and a shoe storage unit. A practical, peaceful home for an academic stay, combining space to concentrate with easy access to London’s research institutions and cultural life.
