_Property of the Week: A fantastically designed family home for sale opposite Hampstead Heath
About the area:
Just over two miles north of its North London namesake, Hampstead Garden Suburb was created in the early 1900s specifically to provide an outstanding quality of life for its residents. Wide, tree-lined roads, generous gardens bounded by hedges and thoughtful architecture that includes the work of Sir Edwin Lutyens – it’s not difficult to see why this area was so popular. Today that beauty and charm remains intact, the red-brick homes and dense green hedges offer a charming alternative to full-on London life. Hampstead Garden Suburb has a super-strong community spirit and an impressive roll call of celebrity names including Jonathan Ross and Ricky Gervais.
The neighbourhood offers the village experience of rural living but at the perfect distance to get involved in the excitement of cosmopolitan life. Meander through your Saturdays, post-pandemic, down the famed Farmers Market that offers fresh produce both inland and coastal. The wide expanse of the Heath is unrivalled, the fresh air of the greenspace provides a perfect balance for the mind and the body after a long day of work. Quiet roads and family friendly, Hampstead is an oasis of calm to escape to once the central London excitement has left you ready to curl up with a book or a quiet night in with your family.
