Soft centre
In the heart of Covent Garden, moments from Trafalgar Square and the National Gallery, step out of the bustle and into Villiers Street II. Inside, the white-cabineted kitchen is on the left, and the second bedroom to the right. Both are contemporary, and powder-blue cushions make the bedroom feel especially cosy. At the end of the hallway is the tranquil master bedroom, which has cream walls and a compact ensuite. Beyond a pretty set of French windows, there’s a view through trees of the West End below, and the Thames beyond.

On the right, next to the master bedroom, you’ll come to the sitting room. The walls and carpet are white, and the smart sofa is accessorised by blue and gold cushions. This room isn’t just easy on the eye – it’s up-to-date too, with a professional printer tucked away in the stylish white cupboards. Facing another French window, the dining table seats four, and just opposite the sitting room is the bathroom, which has a soft colour palette too.
