Where to live in London
London is so big that there is a great choice of places to buy a house but of course there are many things to think about such as price, transport shops and green spaces. Here below are some of the districts you might want to look at.
West London
Ealing is about 12km from the centre of town and on two underground lines. There are great shops and a canal which is a pleasant place to walk. South of Ealing are two areas you may want to think about. Brentford is becoming a very fashionable area to live with modern flats built here. It is close to Kew Gardens, one of the most beautiful gardens in London. The other area is Acton which, because it is close to the BBC studios, is a place where many BBC workers live.
North London
To the west of Hampstead is Finchley. North Finchley has a number of large family houses and the largest Japanese community in Britain. There are a lot of green spaces and the Northern Line underground runs through here. A cheaper area is around Finsbury Park, another beautiful green area. 15 minutes by underground from the centre of London, this is an area where prices are going to go up in the future.
East London
An interesting area is Beckton which used to be a very poor part of London but is now easy to get to because of the Docklands Light Railway and Underground. There are many new houses and flats here and it is very close to the London Docklands Airport. It’s not a great place for shopping but it isn’t too far from Stratford centre which is a big shopping centre. There’s a ski slope in Beckton and a big supermarket. As prices nearer the centre of London go up, more people are looking for a house here.
South London
You can’t beat Greenwich next to the river with its market and park with beautiful views of the river. It is crowded and the traffic is bad but it still feels like a village. At the top of the park is Blackheath, a real village with small arts and crafts shops and lots of nice restaurants. It hasn’t got many big shops but you can walk down the hill into Lewisham which is great for shopping. Blackheath isn’t on the underground but Greenwich is. You can catch a train from Blackheath to Charing Cross station.

a) walk from Ealing to Brentford.
b) walk along the canal in Ealing.

3 Beckton
