Description:

I think we’ve all seen the film with Hugh Grant.  The main thing is that so has the rest of the world!  This is an international location.  It is the home for the affluent.  All the ‘riff raff’ have been driven out to the North of the area.  It’s a cosmopolitan place to live with the world famous carnival taking place every year.  I would avoid a property on the main route of the carnival as these carnivals have been known to get out of hand in previous years so I would play it safe.

The area is connected to the right tube line, the central line, and is the choice of anyone working at or with the BBC down at White City for those who can afford the rents.  It’s a very repectable 3 miles from the centre and rich with culture.  Prices are not cheap and nor would you expect them to be.  The further down the hill, the cheaper it gets.  Ex-council flats I think are good bets.  Check out Colville Gardens.  This part of Notting Hill is really up and coming (if it hasn’t already came!) and is really one of the few places that value can be had.
