Midnight Garden

Bewitching shades of midnight blue, a soothingly serene atmosphere, and a masterful blending of classical features with modern design, give this two-bedroom apartment an almost dream-like charm. Throw in a lush garden, roomy decking area, and brilliant location - just minutes from the rambling footpaths and hilltop views of Brockwell Park - and this hidden gem of a home is perfect for five guests wishing to enjoy South London in style. Every element of this home has been thoughtfully planned, resulting in a calming coalescence of soft tones, warm lighting, and personalised comfort. The open-plan living room and kitchen compliment a soft pastel palette with dashes of signature blue, a lavish bay window, and smart French doors. Classical flourishes, like the gold-framed artwork and enchanting ornamental dolls house, are playfully contrasted by the glow of modern lighting, and polished pea-green floors. Two deluxe sofas make it all-too easy to justify those lazy afternoons in, with one supplying a handy extra bed. The principal bedroom is a sea of smoky blues, brightened by crisp white furnishings, cosy ambient lamplight, and a large, sweeping window. Encapsulating the soft tranquillity of the canvas on the wall, this room radiates calm. Even the bathroom, with its pale green interiors and smooth marble surfaces, is an ode to relaxation - as is the combination of walk-in shower and separate bathtub. And if those long summer evenings coax you into taking your relaxing outside, the living room opens onto a spacious decking area, overlooking a well-tended garden, complete with outdoor seating. We love... The Smart TV and record player in the living room - giving you the option to chill out accompanied by a good film, or a vintage vinyl. The kitchen also deserves an honourable mention, with its effortlessly cool exposed bulb lighting, marble top kitchen island, and (ever on-brand) blue bar stools. And if it's a quiet night's sleep you're craving, you'll be delighted to hear that both bedrooms have been professionally soundproofed. Home Truths: Options abound in the second bedroom, where the trundle bed can be set up either as two twin beds, or latched together to form one king sized double. Of the two dangerously comfy sofas in the living room, one moonlights as a useful extra bed to sleep one guest (you can remove the cushions for a little more snuggle room). And if you're hosting visitors and still need more room, there is also space for two in the living room, on an electric airbed - just let us know in advance if you'll be needing it.
