With its beautiful parks, buzzing high streets and more than a few Michelin-starred restaurants, it’s no surprise so many people want to base themselves in West London. After all, who wouldn’t want to live somewhere that can offer both a calm walk in Hyde Park and the excitement and colour of Notting Hill Carnival?
But with so many different places to choose from, ranging from Richmond-upon-Thames to Holland Park, how can you decide where to live? And how can you find a place that provides an easy and fuss-free way of living, with variety in the kinds of homes on offer?
Quintain Living: It’s where to live in West London
Fortunately, when it comes to choosing where to live in West London, there are plenty of great options, with lots of green spaces, easy links into the city centre and fun things to do for both adults and kids of all ages. But there are only a few places that manage to combine all of these elements into an all-round perfect place to call home - and Wembley Park is one of them.
Not only is it a 15-minute neighbourhood on multiple train and tube lines (and just 18 minutes to Bond Street), it’s also quickly developed into a friendly community thanks to its parks, community centres and activity groups. It also boasts options for most when it comes to the apartments. We’ve long been big fans of Wembley Park, and that’s why we’ve been providing welcoming and fuss-free homes there for years.
As you would imagine for an area used to welcoming visitors from around the world, it also provides plenty of great things to do year round. Whether you want fun things to do with the kids or just a great cup of coffee, Wembley Park can offer it all.
We realise that people want a home that suits their needs and their taste, so we have plenty of options when it comes to the kinds of apartments we offer. They all feature great transport links, a cared-for local environment and all your bills included - so you can get on with enjoying life. But when it comes to some of the differences you’ll need to be aware of to make an informed decision about which apartment is right for you, we’ve put together a handy guide right here.
Canada Gardens
Welcome to our urban-country oasis Canada Gardens, combining the best styles of contemporary country living with the convenience of city life. These homes are great for those with kids or anyone who wants a little more space, with access to parks and gardens, and even a children’s playpark. There’s work-from-home spaces and a rooftop communal living area too, so if you need a change of scenery, you’ll find plenty of options and places to explore.
The Robinson
Do you see yourself as more of a trendsetter, always looking for something a little more fashionable and bold? The Robinson might be the home for you, combining some of the best architectural styles including mid-century, art deco and retro kitsch. The shared spaces, including multiple roof gardens, are bursting with personality too.
Ferrum
Whether you're single, a young couple or just young at heart, Ferrum offers cool and contemporary homes with exposed loft-style fittings. Think New York City warehouse style but in the heart of West London. Complete with gyms and spaces for BBQs, this is the building perfect for those looking to impress.
Alameda
Cool and calm, Alameda is full of homes that provide a sanctuary from the busy world outside. If you’re looking to live somewhere that’s fun and exciting on the outside but relaxed and soothing inside, Alameda could be the perfect home for you. And for the film buffs, there’s even a rooftop cinema space.
Madison
If you love the mid-century interiors style, which has been particularly popular recently, we think you’ll love Madison too. It’s inspired by the Mad Men era - and the building even gets its name from Madison Avenue in New York where so many of the world’s most famous ad agencies were born. Perfect for anyone looking for a relaxed and sophisticated way of living.
Beton
The last thing we want in our homes is clutter. Instead, we want clean lines and contemporary minimalism. That’s what you’ll get in Beton, which also features thoughtful interiors, a pool table and an on-site gym. You’ll be near all the best restaurants and activities too to impress your friends and keep everyone entertained - but that’s true of all our homes.
Landsby
Inspired by the trendy Scandi style, Landsby combines cool with cosy. This building is situated in Elvin Gardens, surrounded by independent shops and businesses that give a real village feel. Plus, there’s space for the kids too, with plenty of play areas. Living in the city doesn’t have to mean living in a place without character!
Alto
We think Alto is a stunning and chic place to be in. But don’t just take our word for it - the Sunday Times Homes Awards shortlisted it as one of the best places to live. Double length balconies and huge floor-to-ceiling windows flood these apartments with light, giving you amazing views over Wembley and its iconic arch.
Repton Gardens
What would happen if you brought the best of nature outside and into your apartment building? That’s what you get at the botanical gardens-inspired Repton Gardens. Light, bright and spacious, there’s also plenty of room to work and relax in shared communal spaces. So whether you’re commuting in or working from home, Repton Gardens provides it all.
Montana and Dakota
Another one for people who love green spaces and the warmth of nature - Montana and Dakota are nestled in an acre of private gardens. These homes also draw their inspiration from the great outdoors, with green tones and wood finishes. Plus, for fitness fanatics, it also boasts our biggest gym.
Wembley Park is one of the best places to live in West London, with access to all the most exciting parts of the capital. And thanks to having apartments to suit every taste, we believe our flats are some of the best to make the most of life in London. If you’re ready to find your dream home, why not get in touch?
