About Chelsea

One of London’s most exclusive neighborhoods, Chelsea is an attractive area for residential properties. The River Thames flows to the south, and Fulham Road marks the boundary with Kensington. Its roots as an enclave for the wealthy date to the late 17th century when it was a rural village outside of central London. 

The borough later became a thriving hub of talented artists during the 19th century Victorian age. Closer to modern times, Chelsea was one of London’s focal points for the cultural revolution of the 1960s. Known as the “Swinging Sixties,” free-spirited fashion designers, rock stars, artists, and outspoken creatives made Chelsea their stomping grounds during this revolutionary period. 

King’s Road remains an iconic thoroughfare that weaves through the busiest sections of Chelsea. However, the bohemian vibe has given way to affluence once again, and designer shops, antique dealers, and upscale restaurants now decorate the roadway.
