General overview

A warm welcome to our family home in leafy West Harrow in North West London. We are situated 2min walk from West Harrow tube station that takes you into the hustle and bustle of central London in 30min. There are bikes to borrow - one men’s road bike, one women’s old school bike and one small kids bike suitable for a 3-6 year old.

The space

Our house is 88sqm over two floors. We have a sun lit living room with two sofas, a fire place and a large TV. The second room is the kitchen / dining room, renovated in recent years. It has all the kitchen equipment you could need. The staircase takes you to the second floor which includes a master bedroom with a king size bed, a second spacious bedroom with a single sofa bed that can be transformed into a double bed. A bathroom with a shower & bath tub and a small office which would be an ideal space for remote working with a large screen and all IT equipment needed available to borrow.

Notes

We are no strangers to home exchange and has been organising home exchanges through connections from family and friends for the past 10 years on a more informal basis, however we are now very excited to have joined PLU and to be part of this great community and do this on a more formal level.

Elin

My name is Elin Priestman, I am Swedish, but have lived in London for the past 14 years. Previously to living in the UK, I also lived in Vancouver. My husband, Nick, and our 5 year old daughter Grace, live just outside central London. We enjoy travelling, going to restaurants & exploring Londons museums. We are quiet, tidy and non-smokers. We like exploring cities and therefore love staying in flats/apartments to get to live like a local.
