To celebrate summer in the city, we’ve gathered six of our favourite homes for endless summer days in London.

Summer Loving: Langham House Close, TW10
Langham House Close was recently described as “a benchmark against which all other apartment blocks can be measured”. This 1950s apartment is located in a desirable pavilion block surrounded by mature communal gardens.

Sun Trap: Solomon’s Passage, SE15
Formerly a mid-19th century cottage, Solomon’s Passage was transformed into a light-filled contemporary home by SE5 Architects in 2011. Close to Peckham Rye Park, the house benefits from sun-drenched private patio gardens.

Urban Oasis: Barnsbury Square, N1
An uplifting loft apartment on one of Islington’s finest garden squares.

English Riviera: Poplar Dock Marina, E14
Moored in a gated marina amongst the city, the large decked terrace of this elegant houseboat offers views out over the water and nearby Canary Wharf.

Al fresco: Fournier Street, E1
This modern townhouse is nestled among the Georgian terraces on one of Spitalfields’ most sought-after streets. The large private roof terrace has striking views of Christ Church and is ideal for outdoor entertaining.

Summer Breeze: Union Wharf, N1
This bright duplex apartment in Union Wharf overlooks the picturesque Wenlock Basin. Glazed doors open to a private balcony and impressive views of the Wenlock Basin, Regent’s Canal and London’s skyline.
