About this property

Live like a Londoner. The flat has its own entrance as originally it was a corner shop.

The open plan living/dining/kitchen is at ground level with a decorative fireplace. The kitchen is fully stocked for cooking, if you wish. It has an oven, microwave, gas hob with extractor fan, dishwasher, fridge, freezer. There are two stools for eating at a counter.

A few steps down to the two bedrooms and shower room (with toilet and basin) and en suite bathroom (Shower over tub, basin, toilet and bidet).

The master bedroom, with en suite, can be arranged as a King bed (6ft/1.8m wide) or as two extra long twin beds. It opens onto a small patio where you can enjoy your morning coffee or an evening drink. Smoking is allowed on the patio.

The other bedroom has a Queen bed (5 1/2 ft/1.5m wide bed).

The living room has a sleeper sofa for one person.

The dining room seats 6.

The entire flat is about 900 ft 2 (80 square meters).

This is a non-smoking, non-pet flat.

We provide some items for your arrival but you will probably have to get more, especially for stays of more than a few days. Items include shower gel, hand wash, toilet paper, paper towel, dishwasher tabs, dishwashing liquid, tea, coffee, oil & vinegar.

We have a crib and high chair for use at no charge, upon request. Due to the nature of the decoration, the flat is okay for 2-5 year olds only if they are well behaved. It'll save you from constantly running after them.

Excellent rental property

The 4 of us were very happy in Joel's apartment before Christmas 2018. The flat is terrific- lounge room is homely and the bedrooms are great, with comfy beds and an ensuite in the master bedroom. Kitchen is fine, with all you need for your stay. It was also lovely and clean! The apartment is well located with access to Paddington and Edgeware Road tube stations. Food options nearby are great- I'd recommend M&S on Edgeware Road for pre prepared meals- but if you want a treat eating out, Kateh in Maida Vale is brilliant. Plus the options on Edgeware Road for Lebanese/Syrian/Moroccan are also great. Joel and his assistant Linda were helpful, not that we really needed anything once we were settled. If you're coming from Heathrow, jump on the Heathrow Express and then it's a 5-10 min walk from Paddington- much easier than getting a cab! We'd definitely recommend this flat.

Perfect New Year's Get Away!

This flat was perfect for our family of 5! Highly recommend! It was so nice to be able to come back to the flat after a long day of site seeing and have enough space for our whole family to relax. As many others have stated, it is super convenient to Paddington Station. Joel and Nacho were wonderful hosts and always responded very quickly to any questions we had and helped with our planning of our trip and restaurant recommendations. When we come back to London, we will definitely rent here again!! Thank you Joel and Nacho for sharing your home with us!

Great Home Base

Stayed at Joel's place for 8 nights, it was wonderful. Great communication, Nacho greeted us upon arrival and explained the workings of the Flat to us. A wonderful layout, the bedrooms are down a few steps from the living room so you feel you have some extra space. All the furnishings were in excellent condition, no rips or tears on couches, etc. 5 minute walk to the tube and same for Sainsbury market across from Nuffield gym, you can find everything for your stay. We did a bicycle tour which was relaxing and fun. Take the boat down the canal to Camden market, great food spots and stores.

Excellent apartment!

We were a family of four. We stayed for a week in the apartment and enjoyed it very much. The owner, Joel, was very helpful to meet all our needs before our arrival, and helped us in our early arrival. The listing description of the apartment was accurate regarding the location, layout and amenities. The property was clean, well-maintained, including the WI-FI, hitting and hot water. The apartment is 5-8 minute walk from Edgware Road tube station and Paddington station. Bus stations are even nearer. The neighborhood is nice and quiet. The owner and his partner, Nacho, provided a very good and friendly customer service, and were willing to assist us in every request we had. We certainly recommend this property for a stay of 4-5 people, since the apartment is a large one.

Paddington pad comfy and convenient

Joel and Nacho's ground floor flat in Paddington (Little Venice) is a perfect place to base yourself for your London exploration as our family (Mum, Dad and two young adult sons) did this northern winter just been. A short walk from Paddington Station means London's excellent underground is super handy along with a range of restaurants, Sainsbury's grocery stores, Edgware Road and motorways. The flat is well appointed, warm and secure, with bedding for five, two bathrooms and ample entertainment via TV (with cable) and stereo to while away the time you're not touring. Highly recommended and a no-brainer for a return trip to London.

Why they chose this property

The flat used to be a corner shop. It still has the stained glass windows with farm scenes. As I grew up on a dairy farm there was some resonance for me.

I was looking for a project and this house had to be completely redone. I have enjoyed doing it up, while learning the history of the area and the type of construction typical to London in the mid-19th century.

What makes this property unique

You'll like the location as it is central to the best parts of London. The area is quiet and residential but close to shops and restaurants.

We hope you, like other guests, will feel very comfortable in a flat that is like a home, much more than a rental flat or a hotel room.
