Ealing, one of West London’s most desirable and well-connected boroughs, is increasingly recognised as a hotspot for both family living and long-term investment. With its tree-lined streets, excellent schools, growing cultural scene, and strong transport links — particularly following the arrival of the Elizabeth Line — Ealing offers significant value for buyers seeking a house in London with both charm and potential. This guide explores what makes Ealing so appealing, the types of houses available, current market trends, and how Fraser Bond supports local and international clients in securing property in this high-demand area.
Ealing is now a key beneficiary of the Crossrail (Elizabeth Line), connecting residents to Central London in as little as 15 minutes and Heathrow in under 10. With access to the Central, District, and Piccadilly Underground lines, it is one of the best-connected boroughs in West London.
Ealing is renowned for its green spaces, including Walpole Park, Ealing Common, and nearby Gunnersbury Park. Its excellent range of schools — both state and private — attract families seeking long-term homes in a safe, suburban setting within reach of the city.
With infrastructure improvements and a consistent demand for housing, Ealing has experienced steady capital appreciation. Rental demand from professionals, families, and international tenants remains strong, offering stable yields for landlords and investors.
The area retains a charming village feel while offering modern amenities, boutique shopping, and a thriving café and restaurant culture — especially in areas like Ealing Broadway and Pitshanger Lane.
Found in areas such as Northfields, Ealing Common, and Acton, these homes offer period features and spacious layouts — ideal for families seeking character and charm.
Wider plots in South Ealing, Hanger Hill, and Pitshanger offer three to five-bedroom family homes with gardens, often close to top-rated schools.
Contemporary developments are emerging in and around Ealing Broadway, offering energy-efficient homes with modern interiors, integrated technology, and private parking — popular with professionals and young families.
Ealing’s prestige pockets, such as Montpelier and St Stephen’s, are home to high-end properties with refined interiors and premium finishes, appealing to executive buyers and international investors.
