This district of south London is famous for giving its name to the Greenwich Meridian and Greenwich Mean Time, but this is far from being a place where time has stood still.
Set on the south bank of the River Thames, Greenwich has a number of royal connections, particularly as the birthplace of many significant members of the House of Tudor. Greenwich is a large area and is divided into the East and West sections with the historic old town in the centre.
The Greenwich streets are leafy ones with a number of large Georgian town houses and Georgian or Victorian terraces up for grabs. The area is now under major redevelopment, with new blocks of flats and duplex apartments appearing, which has created many new properties for sale in Greenwich.
Greenwich Park is a beautiful open space that attracts many visitors from the surrounding areas. It is London’s oldest Royal Park and is situated on a hilltop with impressive views of many of the sights of London.
The Greenwich station connects to Charing Cross and the Docklands Light Railway stops at both Greenwich station and the Cutty Sark station and offers a connection to Canary Wharf. As well as a range of bus routes there are also river boat services running from Greenwich Pier into the centre of London.
The area now has Royal Borough status, which was awarded as part of the recent Diamond Jubilee. This was largely due to its connections to the royal family and the fact that it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The National Maritime Museum can also be found in Greenwich and is of great interest to naval historians, alongside the Old Royal Naval College.
Following on the theme of maritime history is the Cutty Sark, once the fastest sailing ship of her day, she is now being preserved in a dry dock in Greenwich.
Greenwich has good sporting connections, with parks of Greenwich Park being used for the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
The O2 music and entertainment venue is one of the most recognisable attractions in the area, which has also helped to increase the demand for property for sale in Greenwich as it attracts thousands of visitors each year.

"This is the second property I've rented through this letting agency, and once again, the experience has been excellent. They made the whole process very easy and comfortable, with clear communication and great support throughout. A special thank you to Helen Edwards, who was incredibly cooperative, helpful, and professional. She really made everything smooth from start to finish. Highly recommend!"
