Queenshurst, Kingston: flats start from £505k, Help To Buy available

Away from its busy commercial centre and well-known bypass, Kingston upon Thames benefits from two of the capital’s greatest assets — the river and Richmond Park — making it the perfect place for people who want to live in town and country.

Before becoming a London borough in 1964, the area formed part of Surrey, and in a strange geographical quirk Surrey county council still has its HQ there and is the town’s largest single employer.

Kingston is the UK’s seventh biggest retail centre, with John Lewis and Bentalls department stores.

And though Kingston lacks the villagey charm of affluent neighbours Richmond and Wimbledon, the shape of the original medieval town can still be seen in the old market square and the warren of surrounding streets and passages.

New development has been relatively constrained, even along the prized waterfront.

Queenshurst, is a new scheme of 93 apartments close to all the retail action and the train station.

Homes overlook a central garden square and there is a gym, concierge, cinema room and lounge for residents. Prices from £505,000, with Help to Buy available. More info.
