Property types in Primrose Hill


The property stock in Primrose Hill is mostly Victorian, with an abundance
of white stucco-fronted houses and red-brick terraces - some of which
have been converted into apartments. Houses and flats to rent in
Primrose Hill are always in demand - no more so than in Chalcot Square,
where the pretty pastel faades provide the neighbourhood's most
recognisable street setting. Any residence designed by Prince Regent's
architect, John Nash, is also hot property among the rental crowds especially among international tenants looking for a statement address.
The Elsworthy Road conservation area, Regent's Park Road, Wadham
Gardens and Gloucester Avenue continue to be the most coveted
locations.

London's creative powerhouses have been drawn to Primrose Hill for


some time, with singers, actors, poets, authors, media professionals
and models flocking to the early Victorian terraces and sweeping
crescents. The rental market is especially strong among young tenants
as it's a cheaper, faster way to enter this prestigious property market.
Professional couples and families are normally first in line at Primrose
Hill letting agents, keen to enjoy the village atmosphere, views from the
hill and close proximity to Regent's Park and Hyde Park.

Primrose Hill area highlights

It's hard to find a downside to living in Primrose Hill. The


neighbourhood is so charming that it has been the setting for many
films, as well as providing locals and visitors with stunning views over
London, thanks to its lofty position almost 63 metres above sea level.
Primrose Hill property forms an interesting backdrop, with Victorian
and Regency architecture lending a flourish to almost every street.
There's also a thriving social scene, driven by gastro pubs, coffee
shops, high-end boutiques and a la carte restaurants providing a
refreshing and altogether more intimate alternative to the somewhat
commercialised West End.
