Kensington

Kensington

This affluent West London Village is known as the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea and one of the chicest London addresses with beautiful and elegant Victorian homes costing millions around leafy garden squares. The area is well known for the famous department store Harrods, but it also features every major designer brand, as well as boutiques, antique dealers, and home furnishing stores.

 

Whilst the grand mansions and famous stores are well known, the village atmosphere is retained through beautiful mews properties and lesser-known, everyday shopping areas such as Cale Street.

 

South Kensington is also renowned for the Science and Natural History Museums, all a part of London life for those who are fortunate enough to live here.
