A perfect place that you can call HOME
Hyde Park is characterised by large town houses and period apartments in an array of building styles including its iconic Grade II listed white stucco fronted buildings on private, family friendly garden squares.
Many properties border Hyde Park itself, offering stunning views of its green open spaces. All properties have a convenient for the transport and shopping amenities of Oxford Street, the West End and Whiteleys in Queensway.
Modern apartments can be found in the Paddington Basin area and on the Hyde Park Estate, whilst a number of pretty mews houses offer a charming, traditional appeal, set back from the busy main roads.
Who lives there:
Hyde Park is home to a diverse collection of residents of all nationalities and age groups, due to its friendly, cosmopolitan vibe. Whether looking for a grand home or the perfect London pied a terre, often people are attracted to the great community atmosphere and easy access into the City.
For those who call Knightsbridge home, it’s worth every penny. This high-end residential area is unique in its layout with meticulous planning in every area. Its character and charm is something that its current residents are keen to protect, which prospective tenants and homeowners should be equally aware of.
The Plan put in place in 2015 “Make Knightsbridge the best residential and cultural place in London in which to live, work, study and visit.” helps to guide and limit new developments in the area, and gives sage advice to redevelopers or those modernising existing listed buildings. Building height, frontage, traditional features, green space and more are all covered by the neighbourhood plan. There is also a strong focus on environmental impact, with Knightsbridge hoping to become an example of sustainable living. Part of opting to relocate to a conservation area is accepting the ethos and aims for the existing tight-knit community.
Full of character and class, this elite London location has stylish, sophisticated and select shops, restaurants and bars around every corner. Even though the commercial aspect of Mayfair is highly superior, many corporate headquarters, embassies and hedge funds are also based here, not to mention that it has the biggest and most impressive concentration of luxurious five-star hotels in London.
