Oaklands Grove, Shepherds Bush, London W12

Architecture & Interior
Accessed via the private entrance from the street, a pathway lined with a fig tree espalier leads to a charming front patio and the apartment’s front door. Beyond a striking Venetian glass mosaic-tiled entrance lobby lies an interior that is both deeply characterful and quietly contemporary. The spacious Edwardian layout retains its original fireplaces and proportions, while a thoughtful artistic vision brings warmth, luminosity and individuality throughout. The delicate colour palette has been carefully composed by the artist owner, creating an uplifting atmosphere enhanced by exceptional natural light and carefully chosen materials, including art-quality Swiss paints and handcrafted Venetian glass mosaics.

The apartment balances aesthetic beauty with everyday comfort. The solid oak flooring benefits from underfloor electric heating, particularly suited to those who enjoy a more relaxed, floor-based style of living inspired by Far Eastern interiors, while modern conveniences include a Miele washing machine, dishwasher, fridge and freezer, gas hob, electric oven and gas central heating.

To the rear, the bedroom opens directly onto a private wood-decked patio overlooking a naturalistic woodland-style garden, offering a peaceful retreat through every season. At the front, a further brick-paved patio provides an inviting space beneath the greenery.

The generous bathroom is filled with natural light from a large window and features an original striped composition of Venetian glass mosaics, alongside a bath with shower, washbasin and WC with bidet douche.

A minute from an excellent selection of greengrocers, independent bakeries, cafés and restaurants, this is a home that combines artistry, tranquillity and urban convenience in equal measure. Original paintings may also be available by separate arrangement.

In the Neighbourhood
Oaklands Grove occupies a quietly desirable position within Shepherd’s Bush, where elegant residential streets sit moments from the lively and ever-evolving character of W12. The area has long attracted creatives, artists and independent-minded Londoners drawn to its balance of energy, connectivity and unexpected pockets of calm.

Just around the corner, Uxbridge Road offers an eclectic mix of long-established greengrocers, independent bakeries, cafés and family-run restaurants, giving the neighbourhood a distinctly local feel rarely found so close to Central London. From artisan coffee shops to late-night eateries, the area has an easy cosmopolitan rhythm that continues to evolve while retaining its community character.

Green space is also close at hand. Ravenscourt Park, Holland Park and Wormholt Park are all easily accessible, while the nearby woodland gardens of Kyoto Garden provide a quieter retreat from city life.

Transport & Connections
Despite its peaceful residential setting, Oaklands Grove is exceptionally well connected, placing much of London within easy reach. Shepherd’s Bush Underground and Overground stations are both within comfortable walking distance, providing swift access to the Central line and London Overground network, while nearby Goldhawk Road and Shepherd’s Bush Market stations connect to the Circle and Hammersmith & City lines.

From here, the West End can be reached in under twenty minutes, with direct routes to the City, King’s Cross, Paddington and Stratford. The Overground also offers convenient orbital travel across London without the need to travel through the centre.

A wide network of bus routes runs along nearby Uxbridge Road and Goldhawk Road, creating excellent local connections across West London, Notting Hill, Kensington, Hammersmith and Chiswick.

For those travelling further afield, Paddington Station and the Elizabeth line are easily accessible, offering rapid links to Heathrow Airport and beyond.
