chiswick (w4)

Refined yet relaxed, with leafy avenues and a village rhythm that never fades. Chiswick High Road brims with independent shops and dining, while the Thames Path and Chiswick House & Gardens set an unhurried tone.

Architectural variety is part of the appeal — from Bedford Park’s Arts & Crafts homes to handsome terraces and garden flats. Excellent schools and District Line links make it a natural choice for long-term London living.
