Chiswick offers a riverside location, excellent transport links into London and open spaces. Property stock here is mostly Victorian cottages and Edwardian terraces with some mansions located off the high street.

Quaint white cottages and houses feature in Isleworth. A mixture of Victorian terraces and more modern properties can also be found in the streets heading north. Head towards Osterley Park for larger Victorian and Edwardian homes. Aside from its riverside locations, Hounslow is typical West London suburb.
