Chelsea is famous for the King's Road and Sloane Square. With houses that are more than £10 million it's not surprising that it's home to many of the rich and famous.

The vibrant King's Road, filled with your normal high street shops as well as some quirky and unusual boutiques, runs through the centre surrounded with plenty of 18th and 19th century houses, pretty cottages in terraces or squares, mews houses and purpose built artists studios from when it was London's bohemian quarter.
