I moved into this apartment in 2021, and it only took two years to come to near completion. I would have posted this video later, with a more complete apartment but I'm moving abroad soon, so now is the time.
The apartment tour : • FLAT TOUR | £1150 in W...
I hope you will enjoy it, and if you've read this, and if you watched it until the end, thank you so much for your interest ♡
It isn't mentioned in the video, but I live in Ealing (zone 3) and pay £1150 pm without the bills. I can get to the center of London within 25 minutes. Honestly, at that price, it's quite amazing !

Uuuurgh I wanna be your friend!! Your style, your taste in art, your vibe, I love it! I cannot wait to have a place of my own and decorate it like this, it’s so classy but cosy… just the best!! 🩵

Your apartment is incredibly beautiful and I love all the pieces you've picked! The carpet, the sofa, the round shelf (and its placement in the room), the lamp and the art... just perfect 🫶🏼

Oh my, it was so funny when you installed the rails on the top of the drawers instead of the bottom 😆 When it comes to drilling furniture, doors are the bane of my existence. Anyway, so glad to see how the place is coming along.

I had to make a mistake 😅 Thankfully the holes aren’t that visible ! I haven’t had to install doors yet, happily :p

nice video! i love your vibes and you gave me a great tip with the sims :) i was supposed to moved out of my place in zone 1 this coming spring but i managed to extend my contract for 1 more year. I'll definitely go for the sims simulation when the time will come. Best of luck for your career! you got yourself a new subscriber ;)

Hey ! Thank you Emis ! I swear, the sims are a game changer ! It’s just so hard to visualise when you have an empty room otherwise. Don’t forget to write the cheat bb.moveobjects to not be restricted :p !

I moved out of a studio apartment into a 1 bedroom flat, still have not bought much living room furniture. I gave up . A studio apartment is awesome until you move into a bigger space, then you have to spend time, money and anxiety to figure out what works. sidenote - you are a good storyteller - authentic, you should post more.

@sarahconnell Жыл бұрын

Haha, yeah ! I loved the process though, mainly because I believed that I would keep everything forever. Had I known I'd have to sell it all so soon to move abroad, it would have been an entirely different story. But yeah, parts of my flat felt empty for a good while. Some still kind of do. sidenote - thank you :)))

love this video, I've just move in a new flat in London and was looking for some ideas, maybe I should ask you for some advertise :) Really a nice flat and the arts are really an incredible touch! Well done!

@sarahconnell Жыл бұрын

Thank you Federico ! If I’d have an advice, it would be to not be afraid to take your time to find or save for the right pieces of furniture - that is if you know you’re going to live in that city/country for a while ! Otherwise, to know what you prioritise (comfort, aesthetics, sustainability) and plan accordingly will help in the making of an idea-board for each room with their vibes and inspirations/examples from brands. Perhaps you’ll find something second hand or vintage that looks alike, or even perhaps an expensive something will be on sale at some point, so stay alert :)

Hi Sarah, thanks for the great video! May I ask what camera you used to film this?

@sarahconnell 6 ай бұрын

Hello :) At first I used a Lumix with a 1080p quality. I can't remember the model exactly, I think DMC-GX80K. Mine was old so the stabilisation was non existent. Perhaps it's not the case of newer models. From 18:21, I started to use my iPhone 13 mini, in the 4K 30fps setting.

I don’t know how you found those rent prices in London. I can’t find anything under 1900/month. Such a steal girl! Wow!

@sarahconnell Жыл бұрын

It is. It was in Feb 2021, so the covid crisis was still reflected in the price. Now with the inflation and the energy crisis, it’s a whole different story !! My friends who are currently looking for a flat are truly struggling and sadly my landlord isn’t being responsive to them taking over my flat :/
