Handelsplatz, London, W2

This superb two-bedroom apartment pairs elegant design with genuinely spacious living. Step inside, and the open-plan kitchen, dining and living area immediately impresses bright, expansive and beautifully finished, with custom wooden shelving adding warmth to the contemporary interior. Floor-to-ceiling glazing runs the length of the room, filling it with light and opening onto a generous private balcony with a sunny south-east aspect. From here, the outlook is simply spectacular: sweeping views across much of the London skyline, over the green expanse of Hyde Park, and down to the canals of Paddington Basin below. Both bedrooms are doubles of real quality. The principal suite includes a walk-in wardrobe and a stylish ensuite bathroom, while the second bedroom, fitted with matching bespoke shelving, is served by a second full bathroom. Storage has been thoughtfully built in throughout, and a secure undercover parking space is included with the property. The building itself sets the standard for modern London living: residents benefit from a 24-hour concierge, a private cinema screening room, a residents’ lounge and business centre, and a striking canal-facing terrace. Merchant Square puts everything within reach. Merchant Square puts everything within reach. Little Venice and Hyde Park are moments away, while the development’s own restaurants, cafés, shops and landscaped public spaces sit right outside your door, brought to life by a year-round calendar of free community events. Paddington Station, a short walk away, connects you to the National Rail network, the Heathrow Express, and the Elizabeth, Bakerloo, Circle, District and Hammersmith & City lines.
A rare opportunity to enjoy calm waterside living with the London skyline as your backdrop without giving up an inch of city convenience.
