The Roman Road and Bow Neighbourhood

This sought-after neighbourhood is a thriving, highly desirable and lively place to live, with good schools, beautiful green spaces and a well-known food and drink culture. The excellent transport links provide easy access to the City, Canary Wharf and beyond, making it an ideal location for professionals and families alike.

Kenilworth Road and the other Victorian streets of the Driffield Road Conservation area are not only an architectural delight, but they are very friendly and have a strong community feel, and the house is in the catchment area of the popular Chisenhale Primary School.

Despite the quietness of the immediate locality, the Roman Road and Bow in general, provide bustle and life with a plethora of independent cafes, bars and restaurants to choose from and a variety of convenience stores are at hand. From independent boutiques to well-known high street brands, there is something to suit all tastes and budgets.

The famous Roman Road Market offers an eclectic mix of vintage clothing, fresh produce, and artisanal goods, and there is a Sunday food market in the park, with Broadway and the Columbia Road Flower Markets, a 20-minute stroll along the picturesque Regents Canal.

Mile End tube station is just a short walk away from where the Central, District, and Hammersmith and City lines can be accessed, providing easy access to all parts of the city. Express coaches to Stanstead Airport leave from Mile End, and from Whitechapel, two stops west of Mile End, Heathrow Airport can be reached in 35 minutes via the Elizabeth Line. There are also excellent bus links, including the number 8, 277, 425 and 339 buses, making it easy to get around the local area in all directions and beyond.

Victoria Park, which is a 213-acre park that was opened in 1845 and is one of the oldest public parks in London. It features a large lake, numerous walking and cycling paths, playgrounds, cafes, and sports facilities. The park also hosts various events throughout the year, including music festivals,
food markets, and sporting events. It is considered one of the most popular and well-loved parks in London, providing a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. The Olympic Park and London Stadium are a 20-minute walk away, and the Regents Canal, that flows beside Victoria Park, connects Limehouse Basin and the Thames to the South and Islington to the north.

It is no wonder that properties are in high demand in this special area, with its unique blend of old-world charm, modern-day convenience and beautiful green spaces.

Thank you for visiting us We're not an average estate agency. We have continuity of experienced staff but most of all we have integrity, honesty and a desire to actually do the job to our best ability. This may sound like a bold statement but there cannot be many people who have been involved in property locally for the last twenty to thirty years who do not know of us and I would say that most all, if not all, would have good things to say about us. We opened on January 3rd 1990 in a small business centre on Coborn Road but are now proud to trade from our quite contemporary offices in a prominent corner position in Bow's famous Roman Road. We are diverse, we always have been. We are experienced in residential and commercial sales and lettings, new homes, site sale, land acquisition and Housing Association shared ownership schemes but our core strength and mainstay has always been highly effective property management. Over the years we have grown Look by taking over the managed property portfolios of Mitchelson McCarthy Chartered Surveyors, Universal Property Bureau, eWLets and the acquisition we are most proud of, the residential and Commercial portfolio of Prevost Estate Agents that had been trading locally since 1852. In 2015 we took over the high quality portfolio at Phillips Residential in Shad Thames. "We always try to do the best job we can and as the owners of the business have a vested interest in keeping good customer and client relationships; something that sometimes goes amiss in the large corporates." Martyn and Steve Directors and co-owners
