  • In this video, Sinead takes you on a journey through one of London's most exclusive boroughs: Hampstead. NEXT VIDEO: Hampstead Part One - • Where London's Million...
    Stunning Hampstead has been a hot spot for aristocracy and celebrities throughout the centuries and in this video, Sinead is going to show you some of the most expensive, exclusive, and beautiful homes in our capital...as well as where those on the outside of the law may have spent some time!
    Come with Free Tours by Foot to the historical Kenwood House (where films like Notting Hill and Sense & Sensibility were filmed), through the charming Hampstead Heath (790 acres of gorgeous woodland), along the affectionately named 'Millionaire's Row' and finish at Keats' House (a lovingly maintained Regency Villa). With a quick visit to one of the 1980's most stylish and controversial artists, past the home of the inspiration for Ian Fleming's Goldfinger, and along the road where the creator of the Muppets once lived, Sinead will help you uncover all the charming gems of Hampstead.
    This is where celebrities in London live, with eye-waveringly expensive property prices and stunning Georgian architecture. You'll see why this is a hot spot for high profile Londoners - and why it has been throughout centuries. Boasting over 60 blue plaques commemorating the great names that have resided here, Hampstead has been a destination for the rich and famous for decades. Come with Free Tours by Foot to discover this classic London location that tourists don't know about!

    Your tours of London's suburbs and neighborhoods (if that is what one can call them) are engrossing. What a marvelous city. It is so commendable that the powers-that-be have preserved the green spaces, the beautiful old architecture, the historic landmarks and the unique identities of the streets and neighborhoods. They haven't fallen victim to "improvement" and "modernization" like similar places here in the U.S. I love these leafy quiet streets with their gracious homes. Gentility abounds. London, to me, is a treasure. i think there are quite a few neighborhoods, suburbs and connected towns and villages that would be great places to tour. Thank you again, and, BTW, you look beautiful in this video.

    Love your videos. That part of Hampstead is so pretty, if you owned period house there you'd never want to sell. Hope you can come down to SW London soon, Richmond and Twickenham has some great history and the odd famous home

    That brought back some happy memories as I'm living abroad now but lived there as a boy and loved the Heath and Kenwood. I wish you'd got some of the names right, though - it's the Vale of Health, with the (still segregated) swimming lakes, not the Vale of 'Heath', and the pond at the top of the hill is the Whitestone Pond. If you're after expensive houses that make Boy George's look distinctly cheap try the Bishop's Avenue or Ingram Avenue, or around the Heath Extension and the Spaniards, and going up from Golders Hill Park to the Pergola - one, up from the Bull and Bush, I recall still had the watch towers on the corners where it was used to house German internees, mainly Jewish, during WWII.
    Edit: forgot to add that the part of Kenwood at the 'title' was actually the staff accommodation and stable block, now a restaurant although I haven't been there for a long time, while the leafy part you walked through in the part of the garden next to Dr Johnson's Summer House, leading to the lake, is the Orangery - the most recent addition.
    My favourite 'hidden gem' at Kenwood was the walled kitchen garden next to the car park, which virtually nobody ever went into.

      There is vast wealth present at Bishop's Avenue, but little taste. Most of the properties there are absolutely hideous. I'm no fan of Boy George, but I like his house, it has character.

      @@John-G I lived in Highgate for a while, but I don't think I ever walked that far west. Which is a pity, as I'm sure there is some interesting architecture to see there. Locally there were two notorious roads, The Bishops Avenue and Winnington Road, where Arab despots, Russian oligarchs, third world dictators etc would build enormous properties more suitable for Beverly Hills than London!

    O M G... the absolutely incredible digs of Boy George!! I recall (probably many years ago now) when he was sentenced in New York City for some infraction or another, to clean up trash for a couple of weeks somewhere in the city. Of course he was spotted and papped while doing it, and photos of him looking like any regular bloke; no makeup, maybe a bit chubbier than I was used to seeing him, appeared everywhere. I don't know why he lived in NYC just then, but to think he could've been ensconced in this gorgeous, fabulous gothic style mansion you just showed!! No wonder he didn't appear very woebegone. My goodness, and YAY for Boy George.
