Earl's Court was once known as Kangaroo Valley for its popularity amongst Australian and New Zealand travellers. Today, this area has shed its backpacker image and embraced a more gentrified identity. Positioned between Kensington and Fulham, Earl's Court is now highly sought-after for its prime location, offering quick access to central London and the rest of the capital.
Retaining its historic charm, Earl's Court offers a diverse range of properties, from magnificent Victorian terraces to post-war mansion flats. Many grand homes are now tastefully converted into elegant apartments. Private garden squares, a hallmark of West London living, offer residents peaceful green retreats in the heart of a bustling urban environment. Holland Park is a short stroll away.
On Old Brompton Road, you'll find the iconic Earl's Court Exhibition Centre, which remains a symbol of the neighbourhood's dynamic past despite no longer hosting events. Close to this cultural hub, properties around Warwick Road and Nevern Square are desirable, blending classic London architecture with modern luxuries. Transport is a key advantage here. Earl's Court Station sits on the District and Piccadilly Lines, facilitating a quick journey to central London and Heathrow Airport. With its Overground connection, the nearby West Brompton Station has quick links to Clapham Junction and Stratford.

What do you
like most about working in the Kensington area? Like most people who love living in the area,
I particularly appreciate the architecture where Georgian villas and Victorian
townhouses sit alongside striking mansion blocks and quaint mews. There are also some elegant new-builds and the
area is well supported by every conceivable amenity, so it continues to retain
its elite status as one of the best addresses in London.
