Kensington's cottages and townhouses continue to attract buyers who know exactly what they want. Buyer numbers have thinned, but those still looking will pay good money when they find the right home. For upsizers in particular, the gap between what they own and what they want has reduced, which makes this a sensible time to make the move.
Value for money is driving every deal. Homes priced to current conditions rather than last year's results are the ones selling, and the village feel and quick run into the city keep Kensington on shortlists.
Owners listing now are serious about selling, and that clarity is helping deals come together on fair terms.
