2 bed apartment to rent in Creswick Road, Acton, London, W3 (ref: 1019390)

Why we’d rent it

At around 702 sq ft, this is a genuinely well-proportioned two-bedroom apartment, and the floor plan is refreshingly sensible. The open-plan kitchen, dining and reception room is roughly 19ft x 16ft, so it offers plenty of space for a dining table and a decent seating area, plus the added bonus of a private balcony.

The specification is a cut above what you often find in rental property too. It features a bespoke fitted kitchen with stone worktops and integrated Smeg appliances, underfloor heating throughout, fitted wardrobes, and a smart contemporary bathroom. Better still, it comes furnished to a high standard, so moving in should be considerably less painful than the usual combination of furniture deliveries and Allen keys.

The principal bedroom is particularly generous at nearly 17ft long, while the second bedroom gives you useful flexibility as a guest room, home office or proper second bedroom.

Then there is the location. Churchfield Road’s cafés, restaurants and independent shops are nearby, while Acton Main Line and the Elizabeth Line are just a short walk away. Acton Central, West Acton and Acton Town provide further Overground and Underground options, with Ealing Broadway also within easy reach.

For us, it is the combination that works: brand new, beautifully finished, furnished, a private balcony and enough space to actually live comfortably. Add the Elizabeth Line into the equation, and it makes a very convincing rental.
