The Location

Historic South East London borough Greenwich is known around the globe as the centre of world time measurement. The area is home to a myriad of attractions that contribute to its UNESCO World Heritage site status and mean that there is much to keep visitors and residents alike entertained: The restored tea clipper Cutty Sark, and Royal Museums, and the Emirates Air Line Cable Car which provides a fantastic view of the capital as well as a shortcut across the River Thames to the Royal Docks.

Despite its proximity to Central London and the Thames, Greenwich is a London borough with a vast amount of open space. Most notable is Greenwich Park, with the world-famous observatory, as well as over 50 other parks and common green spaces – such as Greenwich Peninsula Ecology Park and Avery Hill Park.

The History of Greenwich

The centre of Greenwich has a distinctly village feel, providing a wealth of attractions from the historic to modern facilities such as the O2 arena, which puts Greenwich on the map as the heart of live entertainment. This famous entertainment centre plays host to many of the world’s most celebrated musicians and high-profile sporting events and, with a resident music club, multi-screen cinema, and a vast array of lively bars and restaurants, the arena is an easily accessible hub of entertainment for the borough.

Living in Greenwich

Greenwich residents benefit from the modern transport infrastructure of the Jubilee and DLR lines - to be further enhanced by the opening of the Elizabeth Line - which delivers fast journey times to Central and West London and make the borough an attractive base for city workers. As a result, Greenwich has seen above average price growth over the last 5 years, a trend that is expected to continue for the next half decade. Greenwich has a younger than average population, with 60% under 40, and average house prices are notably below the London average of £516k.
