Shepherds Bush Area Guide

Estate Agent & Letting Agent in Shepards Bush, W12

Shepherds Bush is one of those classic West London locations – famous worldwide for its connections with the BBC; It feels like it is casually nestled between the posh neighbourhoods of Notting Hill and Holland Park. But don't think that you're moving downmarket coming here, the area has so much to offer.

 

Transport Links and Connectivity

As you'd expect, Shepherd Bush is incredibly well connected to the rest of London via the Underground Tube Stations, including Shepherds Bush Station (on the Central Line), Goldhawk Road, and White City, and numerous bus links.. The area hasn't gone through the same level of gentrification as some of the surrounding areas, so it is seen as both charming and a good bet for future growth for buyers and investors alike. As an area with a rich culture in music and great outdoor life, you'll be amazed at what it has to offer for homeowners.

 

Shopping and Local Amenities

Modern-day Shepherds Bush is a shopping mecca of sorts, housing the Westfield Shopping Centre, independent shops and markets that bring you items from all over the world. Smithfield Market is a staple, but the smaller markets you might not have heard of are well worth seeking out. Uxbridge Road is another vibrant area with a variety of shops and eateries.

 

Arts, Music, and Culture 

Arts and music are most definitely a large part of Shepherds Bush life. The Shepherds Bush Empire is a globally renowned venue where some of the top acts in the world have played. There are smaller music venues in this part of London where you can find some of the best up and coming acts around. And then you have the Bush Theatre, which has unearthed some exciting new writing talent and launched their careers.

The streets surrounding Shepherds Bush market are full of the hustle and bustle six days a week and are surrounded by properties. The Shepherds Bush Road houses some older apartments and is probably the place to look if you're at the lower end of the market in terms of budget, although this is still a trendy place to live. The area is part of the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, adding to its appeal.

London Estates offer great value professional service! Highly recommend! As landlord, I've been working with them for more than 10 years and they were always capable to find the best tenants! Well done John and your team! Thanks!
/ I. P.V.
John and his team at London Estates have represented my interests for at least 8 years. He was successful in selling a high-end residential property not only quickly but for top price. He has subsequently managed all my lettings with reliable long-term tenants. I particularly appreciate the personal service he provides, the speed with which he addresses any issues and the fact that he speaks plainly even if it may be what I don't want to hear! Perhaps most importantly I have found his integrity to be faultless.
/ Andrew Agnew
London Estates are 5 stars+, I would highly recommend. They have managed our flat since 2016, so glad we are in safe hands. Throughout, John and his team have been consummate professionals, so helpful, supportive and nothing too much trouble.

John and his team are SO helpful. Great advice in dealing with our outgoing tenants. They found us lovely new tenants, and they are still holding our hands - anything that we need to get done, John and his team always send a timely polite reminder to make sure I am on top of things. I couldn't rate them highly enough.
