HAMPSTEAD, London
Don't expect any bargains! Hampstead, the
home of the rich and "I've made it class" has a
price range to match its glossy image. Home of pop stars,
media moguls and the generally super wealthy, Hampstead's
price range achieved a heady orbit in the mid-Eighties and
has shown little sign of re-entry since. Active community
organisations fiercely defend and uphold the village and heath
from unwanted developers, although McDonalds scored a notable
victory a few years back. Property is very mixed yet demand
always out strips supply. Modest Victorian terraces can be
found to the south of the heath whilst large mansion blocks,
many converted into apartments, over look the parkland.
The bulk of Hampstead Village is made up
of largely Georgian and Victorian houses, sandwiched between
Fitzjohn Avenue and East Heath Road which are the main roads
running in and out of London. The principal local landowners
the Church Commissioners, Maryan Wilson Estate and the Hampstead
Wells and Campden Trust had largely sold their holdings by
the beginning of the 1990's, and freeholds or long leaseholds
are now the norm. Hampstead High Street still has "useful"
shops such as greengrocers and fishmongers as well as the
usual boutiques. The Everyman Cinema has at last been refurbished
and still shows an eclectic selection of art-house movies
as well as mainstream films.
