Hammersmith Area Guide

Here at Lawsons and Daughters we’re passionate about finding the right property for our clients. As a leading Hammersmith estate agents with a range of property for sale, our area knowledge makes us stand head and shoulders above our competitors. And when it comes to Hammersmith, we truly are experts. We believe it’s one of the best areas to purchase property in if you’re looking to experience the best that London has to offer. This is due to its close proximity to the centre of town (just 18 minutes from Covent Garden and 20 minutes to Bank from Shepherds Bush on the Central Line) and its great vibe, elegant period architecture and lovely parks.

It really is one of the best connected areas in London, with four tube lines running through it, good bus links (there are 17 local routes) and sits on the A4 (M4) useful for getting to Heathrow super quickly. Hammersmith is popular with families due to the great schools and open spaces which makes it a very child-friendly area. As well as this, it’s more affordable than living in the centre of town. Combining the best of city life with fresh, riverside living, Hammersmith is surely the perfect option for those looking for a town/country atmosphere close to Prime London. We also have a range of properties to buy and let in Fulham. If you’re looking for a W6 or Fulham estate agents, contact us today.
