Areas Covered By South West London Estate Agents By Martin Hofschroer

London is one of the biggest cities in the world but not all of its areas are frantic and fast-paced.

South west London is ideal for house hunters across every demographic who want all the benefits of luxurious living without the anxiety associated with residing in a capital city.

There are many beautiful South west London suburbs to choose from if you are looking to settle in the region with each one providing its own unique benefits to residents.

Popular areas include Richmond, Twickenham, Fulham and Chiswick and this article will explain a little about why living in these areas is so desirable whether it is through buying or letting a property.

Richmond is famous for its pleasant surroundings with numerous green parks and gardens on offer including The Royal Botanic Gardens and Richmond Park among many others.

Located around nine miles from the city centre on the southern side of the River Thames, Richmond is popular with commuters thanks to its wide range of attractive facilities and features.

Richmond enjoys a reputation for being one of the nicer places to live in the Greater London region so it is no surprise that estate agents in the region have plenty of people enquiring about properties in the area.

Another gloriously green suburb in the south west is Fulham which is sandwiched between Chelsea and Putney and is well known for its high-end shopping and boutiques.

With plenty of large Victorian houses on the market, Fulham is popular with families because of its safe environment, which is bolstered by great transport links to many of the capital's favourite attractions.

Other fine examples of Victorian architecture can be found in Twickenham which is across the Thames from Richmond and benefits from beautiful tree-lined streets and interesting, varied shops and cafes.

To the east of the central part of Twickenham is the is fashionable St. Margarets which has a reputation for playing host to the best restaurants in the south west of London.

Chiswick is also favoured for its restaurants and cafes on the main high road which creates a continental culture during the sunnier months when people flock to visit the various leisure destinations in the area.

The suburb also boasts some of the most vital historical gardens in Wales and England in locations such as Chiswick House which was designed by the Third Earl of Burlington.

The south west London property market is proving particularly resilient during the current troubled economic climate so it has been able to avoid problems experienced by other areas in the capital.
