Living in Archway

A popular choice for young renters or newcomers to London, Archway has a lot to offer.

Archway benefited from a regeneration programme in 2017, breathing new life into its high street and the community. Not only has it opened up more public space and cycle lanes, the makeover also attracted property developers to build new apartment blocks to cater for young couples and professionals.
 
The area is home to Yerbury Primary School and St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School, both of which are rated “outstanding” by Ofsted.

Part of Archway’s appeal is how close it is to the buzzing Crouch End and gloriously green Hampstead Heath, which means residents can truly benefit from the best of both worlds.

But Archway doesn’t fall short when it comes to entertainment. Brendan the Navigator turns it up every weekend with a unique music line-up. The Boogaloo, just up the hill towards Highgate Tube, hosts regular quiz and club nights featuring their own radio DJs. Find out the latest events, classes, and performances at Lauderdale House, or enjoy a movie night at the Odeon.

For outdoor activities, there’s a football pitch at Whittington Park. Waterlow Park has six bookable tennis courts and lots of open green space that’s ideal for a morning jog.
