About Kentish Town

Kentish Town is one of London's oldest settlements, mentioned in records dating back to 1208. It developed as a rural village on the road north from London before rapid Victorian expansion transformed it into a densely populated suburb.

The area has always had a mixed character, with grand houses on some streets and more modest workers' cottages on others. This diversity continues today, making it one of North London's more varied neighbourhoods.

Modern Kentish Town is a neighbourhood in transition, with increasing gentrification bringing new cafes and restaurants while maintaining its diverse community. Excellent Northern Line connections make it popular with commuters, while Hampstead Heath is just a short walk away.

The Victorian housing stock offers great renovation potential, with many buyers looking to update tired properties or extend to create more space.
