Why is Richmond such a desirable place to live?

Richmond upon Thames is one of London’s most picturesque and desirable areas, offering a perfect blend of natural beauty and sophisticated living. Famous for its stunning riverside views, Richmond Park, and Kew Gardens, the borough provides ample green spaces for relaxation and outdoor activities. With excellent schools and vibrant high streets filled with boutique shops, restaurants, and cafes, Richmond offers a charming village atmosphere. Despite its tranquillity, Richmond has excellent transport links to central London via the District Line and Overground, making it ideal for professionals and families seeking both peace and convenience.

Despite its Zone 4 location, Richmond has better connections than many more central areas, with swift access into London. Richmond’s excellent schools are mainly private, but there are nevertheless a group of excellent state schools, particularly for primary school-age children.

The average rent of a one-bedroom apartment in Richmond is £1,670 pcm, compared to £2,500 pcm in central London

  • 16 are academies, 42 are maintained schools, 23 are independent, 3 are special educational needs schools and 2 are colleges
  • 70 schools in Richmond are primary schools, 30 are secondary schools and 24 are schools for those aged 16-18
