Living in

Grove Park is an area in Chiswick, located in the Borough of Hounslow, West London. In the 1880s, the area was protected from building besides the low-lying land next to the River Thames due to regular flooding, meaning it remained as orchards, open fields and riverside marshland. The development of the location was stimulated by the arrival of the Railway in 1849, this was quickly followed by Grove Park Hotel and soon after came housing. The mix of family-friendly Edwardian homes and spacious apartments means that there is a great selection of accommodation suited to a range of people who are looking to be close to the City whilst being amongst beautiful greenery.
