Area Feature
Kensal Green is a residential suburb in North London, known for its quaint beauty and abundant amenities.
It is a popular and trendy area to live in and attracts many professionals and young families.
Transportation into Central London is quick and easy, with regular bus services and trains.
If you are a shopaholic, with an eye for the latest fashion accessories and high street chains, then Kensal Green is the perfect location to be in.
Not only does it have plenty of malls and independent stores, but it is also fairly close to other major districts such as the trendy Notting Hill and Ladbroke Grove, which are saturated with their fair share of shopping centres.
Kensal Green was once described as being on the wrong side of Portobello, has undergone many changes over the last few years with significant improvements made to the area.
However, it has still kept its edginess and authenticity, and has not been redeveloped as much as neighbouring areas such as Ladbrook Grove and Notting Hill.
One of the great things about Kensal Green is that it is an area in which you can find almost anything you are looking for.
Whether you are into cinemas, nightclubs, fine dining, theatres or arts, you will find all of that here and more.
It is known for its independent boutiques, cafes and bars and its rich and varied history. The area also benefits from being a fascinating melting pot of a number of different cultures and traditions, that have all helped to contribute to the area significantly.
One of the hottest bars in town is the Paradise. Quite simply, this is where it's at, as the venue is the place where you will find anyone who is anybody.
It is often used for business gatherings and social occasions, and is known as being the central meeting point where most of the locals will gather.
The bar regularly holds live music nights, which also helps some of the aspiring musicians in the area to gain more prominence and recognition.

Recently, it has started to draw in many people from various parts of Europe and Africa, which has helped to boost the cultural appeal of the locality.
Schools
There are a number of good schools in the region, including Malorees, a large primary school in Christchurch Avenue.
It has an infant and a junior section to it, which have been judged as 'good' and 'outstanding' respectively by Ofsted.
Kensal Green also has two secondary schools - namely Queens Park Community School in Aylestone Avenue and Capital City Academy.
Both have been rated as 'good'. There is also the Islamia Girls High - a private school which is rated as 'outstanding' by Ofsted.
Nearby, you have localities such as Hampstead which are noted for their top-of-the-range private schools.
The only drawback of living in an area known for its fantastic schools is the fact they are often oversubscribed - with Malorees being an example.
