Time Out London recently posted an article which discussed the tendency of estate agents to invent nicer names for certain areas.
We realise that many of you may be trying to search by terms such as these and so, we are making a point of adding any such names we come across to our database.
Examples so far include:
- When they say properties in Hampstead Slopes, they’re really talking about properties in Archway
- South Chelsea doesn’t exist and is actually (properties in) Battersea
If you come across any more of these ‘estate agent speak’ names, send them in and we’ll add them to Nestoria. We may even do a top 10 blog post.

Great stuff!
Would be cool to see you guys do more myth-busting on the estate agent business.
