It’s no secret that the great outdoors does wonders for our wellbeing so for many buyers, being conveniently located near a park or common is an important consideration.
This is no less true in London. While we might typically associate the capital with densely packed buildings and high-rises, it actually has around 400 green spaces – increasing to 1,000 when considering Greater London – and is home to eight royal parks, commonland (or commons), public parks, pleasure gardens and a handful of garden squares, including Soho Square and Berkeley Square.
From the countryside feel of Richmond Park and the regal air of St James’s Park to the more informal style of Blackheath and Clapham Commons, there’s a verdant corner of the capital to suit everyone. Here's our selection of the best properties close to London's green spaces.
