Property Search - South Kensington

South Kensington is a district in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea in London. It is a built-up area located 2.4 miles (3.9 km) west south-west of Charing Cross.

It is hard to define notional boundaries for South Kensington but a common definition is the commercial area around the tube station and the adjacent graceful garden squares and streets (such as Thurloe Square opposite the Victoria and Albert Museum). The smaller neighborhood around Gloucester Road tube station can also be considered part of South Kensington as well as the institution area around Exhibition Road which includes such famous names as the Natural History Museum Science Museum Baden-Powell House Royal Albert Hall Imperial College London Victoria and Albert Museum and the Royal College of Music although this part is officially part of the small area known as Knightsbridge. Although the postcode SW7 stands for South Kensington some parts of Kensington also fall under this postcode. Only the area south of Cromwell Road is regarded as South Kensington.

Sandwiched between the extremely affluent centres of Knightsbridge and Chelsea South Kensington is harder to characterise. Although a wealthy area overall it also caters for large tourist and student populations; the former is reflected by the type of shops and eateries around South Kensington station whilst the latter is evident by both the halls of residence for Imperial College London and the large number of language schools in the area which attract a sizeable number of foreign students.
