Belgravia
Belgravia is a district in West London within the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. It offers incredibly expensive homes and is known to be one of the wealthiest districts in the world. It lies south west of Buckingham Palace. The district gets its name from one of the Duke of Westminster’s subsidiary titles, Viscount Belgrave.
Belgravia’s Grosvenor Estate continues to be owned by a family property firm, namely the Duke of Westminster’s Grosvenor Group. However, the estate has been compelled to sell a lot of its freeholds to its tenants, as a result of the Leasehold Reform Act 1967.
Most of Belgravia was previously owned by Richard Grosvenor, 2nd Marquess of Westminster, who developed it throughout the 1820s and onwards. Thomas Cubitt primarily worked on the project. You'll discover lots of grand terraces at white stucco homes focused around Belgrave Square and Eaton Square. Many embassies are situated in this area, especially in Belgrave Square.
Pimlico Road, on the southern side of Belgravia, is well-known for its antique shops and high-end furnishings showrooms. 1 established brand along the road is Arthur Brett. Despite these shops, it’s a quiet district of London and neighbouring districts are significantly busier with a lot more shops, offices and hotels.
