City Garden Looking for the perfect place to live in London can seem like finding a needle in a haystack. With so many locations and hotspots to choose from (and proximity to Underground stations to take into account if you want to move around), the huge choice can definitely be overwhelming and somewhat off-putting. Fortunately, the process doesn’t have to be that daunting, providing that you equip yourself with the best tools around – and by tools, we mean information, reviews and recommendations. If you want to be in a hugely sought-after area that is effortlessly cool, the base team highly recommends Hoxton, in the N1 postcode.

Rumour has it…

It is fair to say that Hoxton definitely causes controversy because of its colourful past. For us? We absolutely love it! Now known as the place to live, Hoxton is a hub for the creative mind, bursting with inspiration. With a style of property to suit all preferences, zone 1 access – putting it within walking distance of the City – and of course the abundance of talent oozing from all corners, Hoxton is a winner in our eyes. So what specifically is there to love, we hear you ask? Well…

The array on offer

Despite being so diverse, Hoxton still retains lots of local authority and council housing, which coexist with privately owned ex-local authority properties, and of course redevelopment gems such as Enfield Cloisters and The Factory. Hoxton offers sizeable accommodation at competitive rates for such a desired area, with new homes, apartments or townhouses that will suit your personality and requirements.

Cocktail BarSuited to…?

Brimming with cafés, bars and restaurants, Hoxton is the ideal choice for foodie lovers, socialites and workers looking for creativity around them. Both chain restaurants and secret independent suppliers can be found in the area, and deciding on where to eat may take you some time, with such a vast array to choose from! At the heart of this wondrous hub is Hoxton Square which is the perfect spot to day dream the afternoon away and sip on whatever drink suits your mood… Weather permitting, of course! If you love a local vibe and prefer to support your community, you can definitely do that here, especially with the revived street market and independent sellers. If you’re an art lover, you will love the Geffrye Museum, which shows how English living has evolved over the past five centuries, and if you’re a film fanatic, the Rooftop Film Club will definitely float your boat.

What can you expect?

There are many featured developments in Hoxton, from Grade II listed buildings through to canal facing apartments with balconies, each of which boasting unique traits to complement their attributes. This include properties like Hoffman Square, Hoxton Wharf and Angel Waterside.

Need we say more? Living in Hoxton should definitely be on your agenda.
