| Description: | The next best thing to Hampstead! This is being slowly realised and the prices being achieved for some properties are unbelievable. There seems to be things happening in reverse – converted flats are being turned back into houses. The area is not cheap so yields are not the best. I chose this area for capital growth as it will cash in on the Hampstead name. The properties here are of equivalent quality to Hampstead but do not carry the exorbitant prices. The great thing about this place that even though it is a relatively small area (the smallest in this book) it still has its own tube station. So what more do you want? – everyone wants to live here, it has the name, it has a tube and it is just about affordable! The area is becoming more and more international with the inflow coming from business executives with their families on short to medium term contracts seeking a nice place to live in. | ||||||||
