West London is home to some of the oldest and most prominent communities in the capital. Much of the area was countryside until significant development ushered in a new age that supplanted the few palaces and manor houses dotted around the landscape. The Regency period saw increased demand for grandiose townhouses to meet the aspirations of wealthy individuals who sought to make themselves at home in this emerging part of the city. Since then, it has served as a shining example of London’s exceptional quality of living, filled with wonderfully designed homes and cultured locales that have evolved, gracefully, with the times. While the following neighbourhoods are much loved for their scenic riverside walks, vast green spaces, lively high streets and imbued with a village-like charm, one of the most compelling reasons people choose to call West London home is the strong sense of togetherness present within each community that makes living here truly enriching.
