A curated guide to the best of London's most talked-about crescent — from Kingston to Barnet.
In August 2025, property commentator Saul Sadka posted a hand-drawn map on X that set London alight. The map outlined a banana-shaped crescent sweeping from Kingston and Surbiton in the southwest, up through Richmond, Wandsworth, Clapham, Chelsea, Kensington, and Notting Hill, before arcing north through St John's Wood, Hampstead, Highgate, and Muswell Hill, and curving up to Finchley and Barnet. Sadka argued this golden crescent was where leafy streets, excellent transport links, top schools, and cultural richness all converge — and the map went viral. This site is our guide to the best of it.
