Greenford should continue to be attractive to professionals who are looking for more living space for their money.\n<\/li>\n<p> <\/p>\n<li>Greenford is well connected to central London, Oxford and the Midlands. The area benefits from two train stations, and short bus journey away from Ealing, Shepherd\u2019s Bush (for Westfield London), Wembley, Harrow, Hayes and Heathrow.\n<\/li>\n<p> <\/p>\n<li>Greenford is a great place for families. The area enjoys generous amounts of green open space. Ravenor Park is the largest of Greenford\u2019s parks and each summer plays host to the Greenford Carnival, an event organised by local people, with children\u2019s entertainment, live music, dance and food.\n<\/li>\n<p>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"title-paragraph\">Greenford is in a well-connected area<\/div>\n<p>The truth of the matter is that London cannot house its growing population. It\u2019s growing at 40,000 households a year while the housing stock has grown by no more than 25,000 a year at any point over the past 30 years. This data comes from Boris Johnson\u2019s draft London Housing Strategy for 2014.<\/p>\n<p>People are moving further out as transport links improve, and central London becomes more expensive and crowded. Greenford is well connected, with easy access to trendy areas such as Ealing, Notting Hill, Chiswick and central London. It should continue to be attractive to professionals looking for more space than they could achieve in central London. <\/p>\n<p>Neighbouring Ealing, Shepherd\u2019s Bush (for Westfield London), Wembley, Harrow, Hayes and Heathrow are all easily reachable by a simple bus journey. In 2019 Crossrail will be arriving at neighbouring Ealing Broadway, dramatically cutting travel times to the heart of the capital with a journey to Bond Street of around 12 minutes. Those who drive will appreciate the close proximity of the A40 and easy onward connections to the M40, M25, M4 and Heathrow to the west and central London eastbound.                             <\/p>\n<div class=\"title-paragraph\">Great place for families    <\/div>\n<p>Greenford benefits from a vibrant city centre putting a host of shopping facilities within reach. There\u2019s a choice of supermarkets and a comprehensive selection of independent retailers selling everything from fresh fruit to sporting goods. Nearby, Ealing caters for everything you could possibly desire, with extensive shopping facilities, restaurants and nightlife, while Westfield London, the ultimate retail destination, is also easily reached by road or rail. Local schools include the sought after \u2018Our Lady of the Visitation RC Primary School\u2019 and \u2018Cardinal Wiseman Catholic School\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Greenford should also continue to be attractive to professionals looking for more space than they could obtain in central London. The growth in demand from increasing numbers of commuters and a growing local economy are combined forces that continue to drive capital and rental values up in areas like Greenford.            <\/p>\n<div class=\"title-paragraph\">Spacious parks and a range of outdoor activities                    <\/div\nGreenford enjoys generous amounts of green open space. Ravenor Park is the largest of Greenford\u2019s parks and each summer plays host to the Greenford Carnival, an event organised by local people, with children\u2019s entertainment, live music, dance and food. Just along the A40, Northala Fields, comprising four grassy mounds, water features, caf\u00e9 and playground, provides far-reaching views of central London.     \n\nPerivale Park, with its 9 hole golf course, is bordered by the River Brent, its banks forming part of the Brent River Park Walk, a 3.5 mile route that stretches from Hanwell to Perivale. \n\n&nbsp;\n\n\n<div style=\"text-align: center; margin: auto; width: 100%;\">\n<div style=\"text-align: center; margin: 10px auto;\"><a style=\"font-size: 15px; font-family: 'Lato' Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: bold; text-align: center; color: #ffffff; text-decoration: none; background-color: #44d371; border-top: 12px solid #44d371; border-bottom: 12px solid #44d371; border-left: 24px solid #44d371; border-right: 24px solid #44d371; border-radius: 4px; -webkit-border-radius: 4px; -moz-border-radius: 4px; display: inline-block; letter-spacing: 1px;\" href=\"https:\/\/propertypartner.co\/s#\/grid-view\">Explore investment opportunities<\/a><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\n<!-- Begin MailChimp Signup Form -->\n<link href=\"\/\/cdn-images.mailchimp.com\/embedcode\/slim-10_7.css\" rel=\"stylesheet\" type=\"text\/css\">\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t#mc_embed_signup{background:#fff; clear:left; font:14px Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; }\n\t\/* Add your own MailChimp form style overrides in your site stylesheet or in this style block.\n\t   We recommend moving this block and the preceding CSS link to the HEAD of your HTML file. *\/\n<\/style>\n<div id=\"mc_embed_signup\">\n<form action=\"https:\/\/propertypartner.us9.list-manage.com\/subscribe\/post?u=bb49cbb22f66a692d5bb9ad74&amp;id=7f3b9b3eb1\" method=\"post\" id=\"mc-embedded-subscribe-form\" name=\"mc-embedded-subscribe-form\" class=\"validate\" target=\"_blank\" novalidate>\n<div id=\"mc_embed_signup_scroll\">\n\t<label for=\"mce-EMAIL\">Subscribe to our monthly newsletter to access property market updates, Property Partner related news, and to hear about new investment opportunities.<\/label><br \/>\n\t<input type=\"email\" value=\"\" name=\"EMAIL\" class=\"email\" id=\"mce-EMAIL\" placeholder=\"email address\" required><br \/>\n    <!-- real people should not fill this in and expect good things - do not remove this or risk form bot signups--><\/p>\n<div style=\"position: absolute; left: -5000px;\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><input type=\"text\" name=\"b_bb49cbb22f66a692d5bb9ad74_7f3b9b3eb1\" tabindex=\"-1\" value=\"\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"clear\"><input type=\"submit\" value=\"Subscribe\" name=\"subscribe\" id=\"mc-embedded-subscribe\" class=\"button\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/form>\n<\/div>\n<p><!--End mc_embed_signup--><br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The investment case for Greenford, London We believe that there is a strong investment case for Greenford, in West London\u2019s borough of Ealing.
