Gipsy Hill

SE19 1 / SE21 8 / SE27 9

Up-and-comingGood high streetFamily-friendly

Gipsy Hill sits on the border of Lambeth and Crystal Palace, with its own Overground station. The area around the station has seen significant investment in recent years, with new cafes, restaurants, and a growing community. Housing is a mix of Victorian terraces, 1930s semis, and some new developments. It's more affordable than Crystal Palace or Dulwich, which is the main draw. The views from the hill are spectacular on a clear day. Crystal Palace Park is within walking distance.
