Primrose Hill is well worth getting to know. From its fine selection of amenities to its green spaces and coveted homes – find out more about what makes the area special below.
Primrose Hill extends from – and rises above – Regents Park, giving panoramic views across the city centre. Around this enviable viewing spot are a patchwork of residential streets containing gorgeous pastel-coloured terraces, mansions set back from the road, and a highly curated selection of independent shops, pubs and cafes.
The location has been a favourite haunt of celebrities, which has steadily reinforced the exclusivity of the area – from Ewan McGregor to the Gallagher brothers and Jude Law – not to mention the many films that have featured the location and its views across London.
The area is sparsely developed – and this is deliberate – with its broad, spacious streets and properties kept intact. Similarly, it’s not a place your likely to find a popular shopping chain or high-street store. Residents value their bohemian selection of shops, grocers, boutiques, cafes and restaurants which stand a short distance away from the grand properties.
Residents come to live here for the quiet air of exclusivity offered by it’s well-preserved residential streets, which haven’t be upended by intrusive development or a greedy division into tiny flats. Not to mention the gorgeous views afforded by the hill itself, and the many valuable amenities.
