The Chiswick Area
|
Chiswick is a suburban area situated seven miles to the West of the City of London
and its place name probably means "the cheese farm" originating from the old English
words "Cese" and "wic". The area is bounded by the River Thames to the South,
Hammersmith to the East, Brentford to the West and the Borough of Acton and Ealing to
the North.
Chiswick is incredibly well placed offering excellent communications both into London
and out of town, a greater part of its attraction is the diverse property type ranging
from splendid Georgian houses on the River at Chiswick Mall through to modern day
contemporary developments within the borough. Bedford Park, London's first garden suburb,
is situated on the northern side of Chiswick and offers some magnificent Victorian
semi-detached and detached family homes associated with the Aesthetic Movement of the 1870's.
To the south of the area lies Grove Park where you can find the enjoyable open spaces of
Chiswick House and Grounds and some particularly pleasant walks along the River Thames via
towpaths adjacent to a number of historic public houses situated in Strand-on-the-Green.
In essence Chiswick offers a property type to match everybody's tastes whilst being
complimented by excellent local communications, retail and recreational facilities.
