The best areas to live in London
40
Mayfair
Belgravia
living in Mayfair is highly desirable, so it’s no wonder that
this part of central london is one of the most expensive
places to settle anywhere in the world. Buyers would require
at least £1,000,000 just to buy a one bed apartment here!
Yet, nevertheless, this popular residential area still manages
to retain a village-like feel, even though it is located right in
the heart of the city.
quiet, fashionable and incredibly beautiful, Belgravia is an
expensive neighbourhood populated by classical
architecture and steeped in dynastical wealth. in the past,
Belgravia was a bustling city centre where some of the
greatest movers and shakers lived. today, you can still see
that history in the grand terraces, some of which are owned
by British royalty.
Notting Hill and Holland Park
Marylebone
holland Park is a beautiful, upscale neighbourhood in
central london. it’s popular with families, celebrities and
others looking for a quiet community with a good location.
holland Park is home to some of the largest detached
homes you will find in london, though they don’t come
cheap.
this london district has a distinguished history and is just a
stone’s throw from Oxford street and its bustling crowds.
luxury properties now abound and, in fact, Marylebone
high street has outperformed Mayfair and, indeed, other
popular areas of central london for more than 5 years in a
row.
