Kinleigh Folkard & Hayward - Lee Lettings

For many people Lee remains something of a well kept secret, deep in the heart of the borough of Lewisham, but it’s an area rich with history and a good selection of Victorian housing stock and new developments for house hunters to choose from. Add to this the relative ease of transport into central London and a choice of good schools, and it’s no surprise that residents want to keep this hidden prize to themselves. Bordered by popular Blackheath to the north and Bromley to the south, and with plenty of green spaces, Lee, Hither Green and Grove Park all offer a more affordable option for young families. A range of residents’ groups dedicated to preserving the area’s charms point to a community feel that is hard to manufacture, and their efforts have succeeded in restoring local landmarks and introducing tree planting projects.
