About Richmond

Richmond upon Thames consistently ranks among the highest quality-of-life locations in Greater London, and it's not hard to understand why. The combination of Richmond Park — 2,500 acres of Royal deer park — the Thames riverside, excellent schools and a charming town centre makes this one of the capital's most complete neighbourhoods.

The housing stock is predominantly Edwardian and Victorian family homes on tree-lined streets, complemented by a growing number of high-specification new developments. Values have consistently outperformed the wider market.

Richmond station provides direct services to Waterloo in under 20 minutes, while the District line offers a direct underground connection to the City.
