Are you thinking of making a move to Kentish Town? We look at things to do, properties on offer, and more in our Kentish Town area guide.
Kentish Town is best known for its colourful properties that line the streets, with Kelly Street being particularly famous for 'rainbow' houses. These charming period Victorian homes not only put a smile on your face but are great for families too. The area isn’t short of unique converted properties: try the Chappell Piano Factory, an industrial building transformed into stylish luxury apartments, an ideal spot for young professionals.
Take a look at some of the historical and independent pubs, cafes and restaurants which make up the bustling social scene. Assembly House is a popular spot for a pint; independent cafe Saint Espresso is known for its great coffee, or find Kentish Town’s backstreet gem of a boozer, The Pineapple, which offers excellent Thai food.
In terms of parks, Montpelier Gardens provides a green open space for residents to enjoy, and the new children's play area makes for a famous family hang-out spot. Not known to many, but Kentish Town is also home to the UK’s first urban farm: The Kentish Town City Farm is a great place to escape city life. Say hello to Shirley the cow from us…
Kentish Town is well located on the Northern Line. Jump on, and you can be at King’s Cross in 7 minutes, meaning you’re just a hop from the Eurostar for the greenest way to get to the continent. You can stroll into the centre of Camden Town in 10 minutes, while plenty of local buses run day and night, connecting you to the 24-hour city.
The area also has various schools with outstanding reputations, like Kentish Town Church of England Primary School and the William Ellis secondary, making it an excellent location for families.
