Fulham is a posh, relatively expensive residential area of London. Within a short bus ride, you find yourself in the heart of Chelsea. Many wealthier families, as they expand, buy properties in Fulham, more affordable than Chelsea, and not too distant from the famous Kings Road in Chelsea, a must for shopping.
With two of the Premier League football teams: Chelsea and Fulham, the area is also great for sport, football certainly but also rowing and sailing off the beautiful banks of the Thames or cricket at the famous Hurlingham Club.
The central spot of the area is Parsons Green and the White Horse Pub, famous for its BBQs as soon as the sun comes out. The fans of Fulham particularly like the mix of the bourgeois streets of Fulham Road and New Kings Road, and the North End Road, a more diverse street where you can find fruit and vegetable market stands every morning along the road.
Let French Touch Properties find your new family cocoon among Parsons Green’s Georgian houses, the Lion Houses of Petersborough Estate, the Victorian houses in Munster Village or the ultra modern buildings on Imperial Wharf.
The area also offers excellent schools, whether they are private or state schools.
