A More Lovely Flat

After much thought and deliberation we decided that the quaint apartment on Edwardes' Gardens just wouldn't work. Today we revisited a more modern apartment on the grounds of the former St. Mary Abbots workhouse and hospital. Unit 4 in Walnut Court is in a larger complex called Kensington Green, with a 24 hour Porter, a fitness room and a parking space (for our eventual Smart Car!)

Upon the second visit we realized that this apartment would be perfect for us. The furnishings are contemporary, the bathrooms are wonderful and the grounds are VERY quiet. It is located in a beautiful neighborhood with a darling little community of stores and shops just across the street. Check out the latest photos on Heatherland for a tour in pictures.

To celebrate, we went to the London Eye tonight. We will post some pictures tomorrow.

Sounds (quiet) great, and near a hospital is always good.

Clarification: This flat is part of a newish development on what used to be a hospital, and before that was a workhouse for the poor. If you look at the photos, and the articles in the next post on the history of the workhouse, you will see the original 1800's building is now one of the housing units. They took the property, rehabbed the one building, built other housing, and now the whole thing is called Kensington Green. It's midway between two tube stations, and in the middle of fabulous shopping, restaurants, etc., but is also quiet because it's set apart from everything.
