Hammersmith Grove, Hammersmith, W6

Hammersmith Grove is one of Hammersmith’s premier roads; a wide, tree-lined avenue that links the centre of Hammersmith with Shepherd’s Bush. The road mainly consists of three and four storey imposing Victorian terraced houses; some have been converted into flats but a high number remain as large family homes, giving the area a real sense of community. These homes are exceptionally well-kept and the owners have celebrated the beautiful architectural features that properties built in the early Victorian period benefit from. The southern end of the road adjoins Hammersmith Broadway where a number of modern high quality offices and commercial units are based, including the head offices of the likes of L’Oreal and Disney. The busy, cosmopolitan feel here is an interesting contrast to the peaceful residential feel further up the street.

Nestled between the houses are a number of highly regarded independent cafes, shops and restaurants that give the road a unique feel, such as Brackenbury Wine Rooms, a fantastic bar, shop and restaurant that has acquired a reputation as one of London’s best wine bars. The Grove is an award-winning gastro pub, perfect for those that like Italian food in a traditional setting. For larger shops and restaurant chains, both Hammersmith Broadway and King Street are just moments away.

Residents of Hammersmith Grove are spoilt for choice in terms of transport links, with a Tube station at either end of the road – Hammersmith Underground Station offers access to the District and Piccadilly lines with Goldhawk Road to the North giving access to the Circle and Hammersmith & City lines. Hammersmith bus station with routes all over London operates from the adjacent Hammersmith Broadway. For parking, there are a mix of permit holder only spaces as well as pay and display areas for those visiting the popular restaurants and cafes on the road.

With its proximity to an excellent array of amenities, fantastic transport links and its beautiful setting, it is no wonder that Hammersmith Grove is well-known amongst professionals and families as one of the most sought-after roads in Hammersmith.
