Creswick Road, Acton, London, W3

Why we’d buy it There is a lot to like here, but the principal bedroom deserves top billing. At over 16ft long, with a 3m ceiling height, built-in storage and its own en-suite, it is the sort of bedroom you simply do not expect to find in a two-bedroom flat. The rest of the apartment holds its own rather nicely. At around 705 sq ft, there is a proper sense of space throughout, while the 19ft kitchen, dining and reception room gives you one genuinely sociable living space and opens directly onto a private balcony. Being on the top floor helps too. No neighbours above you, plenty of natural light and a layout with rather more personality than the identikit rectangles found in many newer developments. There are two bathrooms, underfloor heating throughout and access to communal gardens. Then there is the parking. You have an allocated off-street space with EV charging, which is becoming less of a nice-to-have and more of a genuine consideration for London buyers. Creswick Road also puts you in a useful pocket of Acton, with Acton Town and South Acton stations within easy reach and Chiswick just down the road. In short, this is a modern two-bedroom apartment that has remembered people actually need to live in it. Good proportions, outside space, parking and a principal bedroom that is bordering on showing off.
