An Overview Of Bloomsbury

Bloomsbury was once home to some of the world’s most famous literary figures, including Virginia Woolf and Charles Dickens and the area is blessed with an abundance of history and art heritage.

The area also features Bloomsbury Square, Russell Square and Bedford Square, three of the many garden squares in the area. These are some of the most beautiful green areas in London and offer a quiet place to escape, relax and enjoy the sunshine (when it’s out!).

It also attracts students and academics due to the various colleges close by including University College London (UCL),SOAS, University College Hospital (UCH) and the London School of Tropical Medicine, whilst it is close to many others.

Great Ormond Street Hospital is located off Queen Square and undertakes some amazing work for children’s healthcare and you also have University College Hospital (UCH), a highly regarded teaching centre and hospital.

Many of the properties in the area are Georgian-terraced houses. The look of these houses combined with the garden squares add to the picture-perfect appearance of Bloomsbury. The two in combination also create a village-like, suburban feel to the area. There are also some beautiful red brick mansion flats which are very popular and often have waiting lists of buyers for them.

Bloomsbury also has its fair share of modern builds too. For example, one of the most noted ones is the Brunswick Centre which is home to both residential flats which overlook the regenerated shopping piazza with its wide range of retail and restaurant outlets, including a huge Waitrose food hall and a Renoir cinema.

There is no doubt that we will have the place for you amongst our selection of properties to let in Bloomsbury.
