Highams Park – Quietly Brilliant

Tucked between Chingford and Walthamstow, Highams Park offers a slower pace with all the perks of London life. It’s a place where the sense of space, greenery and local warmth creates a genuine village feel, yet Liverpool Street is just 25 minutes by train.

Expect independent coffee shops like Yaz and Humphry’s, Saturday strolls around Highams Park Lake, and a strong sense of community at the heart of it all. Families are drawn to the area for its outstanding schools like Handsworth Primary and Highams Park School, plus the abundance of 1930s family homes and garden-filled streets.

It’s ideal for those looking to step back from the buzz, but not too far. With good transport, great schools and friendly neighbours, Highams Park is a quiet success story in East London.
