Portland Road

Runs north from Clarendon Cross with a shifting character — shops and restaurants at the southern end, then a long residential stretch of painted terraces and low houses. Gardens are small, light is good, and the street has a strong local following. It sits on the W11 side of the Holland Park boundary, which means buyers should search both postcodes.

For a wider view of the market around it, see Holland Park house prices — currently near £1,620 per square foot.
