Freehold properties are scarce in Covent Garden and range from converted warehouses to period Georgian. Hidden away are fabulous novel penthouses with roof terraces and converted period buildings in quaint streets with echoes of the old Covent Garden market, such as Rose and Floral Streets.
There are new developments in Trafalgar Square, Drury Lane, Garrick Street and Henrietta Street overlooking the famous ‘Actors Church’ of St Paul’s. Red brick mansion blocks can be found in pedestrianised streets such as Broad Court while there are inexpensive buys in ex-local authority courtyards such as Martlett Court, Beaumont Buildings and Oldham’s Walk near Covent Garden Station.
The consistently strong rental market is heavily populated in Covent Garden, from celebrities and city businessmen to students, and property is always at a premium. There’s a constant demand for the area because everyone wants to experience this exciting and popular central hub.
Covent Garden is the place to be for theatre in London, if not the world. The London Transport Museum features a history of the world’s first Underground Train System and a good collection of Art Deco Posters. A stone-throw away is Floral Street which is noted for its designer fashion, while Long Acre has more mainstream chains.
Wander toward The Strand and drop in at the elegant Savoy Hotel for tea, or just sit back and watch the world go by in one of the outdoor cafés in the main piazza.
