New-build developments in London

New homes

The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea is the smallest borough in London but it is certainly one of the most affluent and sought-after.  Admired as a place to live throughout the world, when international professionals move to London for the first time, this is the area that they often wish to live in.  The team at Kensington estate agents Benham & Reeves known the area like the back of their hand so they can advise on all its merits – it is known for its famous museums including the Natural History Museum and the Victoria and Albert Museum, as well as its luxury shops and fine dining restaurants.  And of course Kensington Palace and the stunning Kensington Palace Gardens are perhaps the area’s most beautiful places to visit while vibrant Kensington High Street is a mecca for lovers of luxury goods.

Kensington’s architecture is also outstanding and here you will find handsome townhouses, elegant mansion blocks and period conversions as well as impressive mansions, situated in quaint cobbled mews and beautiful garden squares. Kensington also has a select, few, modern, residential developments which particularly appeal to international buyers and renters looking for more contemporary, lateral living.

Where do you currently live? I’m currently living in Battersea, moments from the park.

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.

Tell me a little about your property career and interest in it I've worked in the property industry for other top agents for 15 years managing the letting of prime properties in St John's Wood and Hampstead and central London. Every day is different and I really enjoy helping tenants discover the best of what the area has to offer and provide a great service to everyone.

What are your passions outside work and how do you relax? I like keeping fit and have recently taken up running. I'm also into hiking and currently planning my next adventure.
Where do you currently live? Maida Vale, West London.

What do you like most about Kensington and surrounding areas? From stunning new property developments which sit side by side with period town houses, Kensington has it all. It is surprisingly tranquil for such a popular part of central London and has a strong community, a real mix of all cultures and generations.

Tell me a little about your property career & experience? I have worked in property lettings for over three years and I am really enjoying working in Zone 1 prime London.  I have good negotiation skills and am quite sociable so working in lettings is the ideal career for me.

What are your passions outside work and how do you relax? I enjoy socialising and am an avid Manchester United supporter, I also enjoy cricket, so watching matches is a good way for me to unwind.
