Acton is proving to be one of the most popular, up-and-coming areas in West London for both students and young professionals alike. West London is famous for its parks and green spaces and the word Acton actually means oak farm in old English.
Located in the borough of Ealing, you can still find plenty of places for a walk or a morning jog. However, it is the bars, restaurants and proximity to London’s famous ‘West End’ that really bring the place to life and are making the area so popular. The balance between urban living, access to green parks and canals and proximity to Central London is what is setting the Acton area apart and making it one of London’s most popular areas.
Recently-refurbished and opened in September 2022, this residence has all of the facilities you would expect to find in modern co-living accommodation. There are a number of social spaces including a rooftop terrace, quiet study spaces, a café and even an onsite cinema.
All bedrooms are studios with compact double beds, en-suite bathrooms and kitchen facilities within every room. Each studio comes complete with storage facilities, a wardrobe, a fridge freezer, a microwave and the all-important full-length mirror. There are additional community kitchen spaces, an on-site café with dining area. The building is secured with a 24-hour reception/security team and CCTV.
