Architect's Christmas: Atelier-Flat and courtyard: 3 mins. to Westfield shops!

This spacious and light-filled one bed, [2 WC's + 1 Bath/shower combination] loft-style atelier and flat with 3.0 metre ceilings is located within a converted 1880's warehouse: this will be your discrete, quiet and colourful West London hideaway. Our atelier in Shepherds Bush is opposite WESTFIELD shopping centre and West12 shops which are a 2-5 minutes' walk away. You will also have the use of our gated courtyard for chatting, tea-drinking, hanging out, and smoking. One more WC/basin on lower landing = the 3 half baths: never a queue for a basin or loo! The premises are former BBC offices and Studios: this Victorian-era building [once called "The Dairy"] is the bohemian setting for a totally refurbished one-bed atelier/apartment by two architects for the design-minded visitor. WESTFIELD is Europe's largest shopping and leisure centre packed with cinemas, [32 VUE.COM cinema screens within 5 minutes of here], shoppes, and any type of restaurant or café you could imagine. John Lewis opened this year expanding the complex northward to Wood Lane Tube. In Woodstock Studios itself, you can rub shoulders with great musicians [since several household names record their music here] and creatives in our Bohemian courtyard and apartment designed by Harvard and Cambridge University Tutors. Our apartment in the locally-famous “Woodstock Studios” allows you to live in Shepherd’s Bush near to Holland Park, Brook Green, Kensington’s big museums, Imperial College, Kew Gardens, and much more... [these major attractions are 20-45 minutes away by bikes which are available at several TfL Santander Bike rental stations nearby]. From the attractive planting in the courtyard to the lush roof gardens, this is a famous building from back in the day when Alec Guinness filmed spy stories in this former studio premises.
