Kentish Town has been called the slightly more sophisticated older brother to nearby Camden. The area is packed with things to do and see and is very well located to a number of language schools and universities. The local area is packed with places to eat, cafes, bars and pubs as well as a number of famous and more underground music venues. The nearby high street takes care of your more practical needs with multiple supermarkets and shops and if all of that isn’t enough, you even have Camden less than 10 minutes walk away.
Hampstead Heath Park is just a short walk away and offers some great outdoor space which includes tennis courts, a running track and a beautiful forest ideal for walking, jogging and cycling. Kentish Town even has its own city farm complete with resident ducks. What more could you ask for?
This residence has so many facilities and features, it is going to be a challenge to fit them all in. Firstly the rooms, they are all studios meaning they have their own private bathroom and kitchen. In addition the studios are ready to ‘live in’ so come equipped with everything from pots and pans to plates, cutlery, ironing boards, bedding etc. All included as with the price of the studio.
The residence itself has an onsite café, a cinema, a quirky lounge/dining area and even a disco. The in house Events Team organises weekly events for the residents alongside larger seasonal parties. Your day to day needs have also been considered so there is a convenient laundry room, bike storage and gym space for you to make the most of. Last, but definitely not least, you will be well connected with a strong, unlimited Wi-Fi connection (min speed of 100mbps).
