Kentish Town is a colourful and arty neighbourhood with a quiet charm of its own. It is located between the more famous and loud Camden and upscale Highgate. It is a perfect location for those who want to be away from the hustle but still enjoy the energy and diversity of 'proper' North London. Kentish Town is well-known for Victorian terraced townhouses with brightly painted exteriors. Some of the most sought-after streets in Kentish Town are Lady Margaret Road, and those branching off it, Bartholomew Villas, Bartholomew Road, Patshull, and Lawford Roads.
