Welcome to West London

Just as we couldn’t possibly pick between the many wonderful areas that make up West London – whether that be Kensington and Chelsea, Notting Hill, Fulham or any of the other many exceptional boroughs which are contained within those borders – we find it equally impossible to argue over which part of London is the finest. Choosing between areas in the city is like deciding our favourite bite of our favourite meal. Who could possibly argue when what’s on offer is so deliciously perfect?

We will say, however, that within the smouldering melting pot which makes the capital such a fascinating place to live, there is room for different personalities and offerings within its many neighbourhoods. We are all distinct and have our own ideas for what makes the perfect home, whether you’re a young family or a young professional.

West London represents what, for many, will be their absolute ideal. And, of course, there’s plenty of scope within the area to cater for every individual, from those wanting to stay right at the heart of the action to those seeking more tranquil setting near stunning greenery. That variety is key. It means we can all find exactly what we are looking for and ultimately, unlock the door to a property we are proud to call our home.

Just as important as what distinguishes these areas though is what brings them together. You have the freedom to choose the West London borough which suits you best, but thanks to the excellent transport links within London – and just how much is available within relatively small amounts of space – you never have to miss out on what the rest of the capital has to offer.

You can indulge yourself with a spot of vintage shopping at Portobello Road, enjoy the finest food at Shepherd’s Bush, check out the narrowboats at Little Venice, live amongst nature and party in the City, or vice versa if you so please. Choice is what West London is all about and there are few places that can provide as appetising a buffet of experiences as this.

What is Shared Ownership?

Shared Ownership is a government scheme that allows buyers to purchase a share in a property, usually between 10% and 75%, while paying a reduced market rent to a housing association on the remainder. The scheme gives first time buyers and those that do not currently own a home the opportunity to purchase a share in a new-build or resales property.
