Property types in Primrose Hill

Property for sale in Primrose Hill is usually snapped up in record

time, as the neighbourhood is actually quite small with a limited

housing stock. Many of the terraced townhouses that were

converted into flats during the 1980s and 1990s are being converted

back into single dwelling, further reducing the number of residences

that come to market. The pastel-rendered faades on Chalcot Square

are probably Primrose Hill's most recognisable properties, although

the smattering of white stucco-fronted Regency townhouses

designed by architect John Nash are also unmistakable.

Most coveted Primrose Hill roads

The Elsworthy Road conservation area, Regent's Park Road, King

Henry's Road, Oppidans Road, Prince Albert Road, WadhamGardens and Gloucester Avenue are some of Primrose Hill's most

coveted addresses. Property for sale at the top of the Hill - which sits

about 250 feet above sea level and affords panoramic views over

central London - remain high on house buyers' wish lists.

Primrose Hill area highlights

Primrose Hill is a beacon of retail independence, with a distinct lack of chain shops and High Street

names. The emphasis is on independent stores and family-run businesses, with Primrose Patisserie,

Primrose Hill Books, children's clothing boutique Elias & Grace and the Primrose Hill Bakery just some of

the unique retail options. Primrose Hill also has a booming caf culture, which adds to the

neighbourhood's village vibe. Those that prefer more formal social dining can choose from many gastro

pubs and restaurants, including The Engineer, The Queens and The Lansdowne.
