Richmond Property for Sale: Riverside Houses and Flats in South-West London

Richmond has a theatre, riverside terraces, Richmond Green, and Richmond Park is the largest of London's royal parks. Richmond station offers District line, Overground and South Western Railway services, with Waterloo about 20 to 25 minutes away. Nearby Kew and Petersham are green and sought-after, and the Thames towpath links neighbouring areas. Buyers include City professionals, families choosing local schools and international residents wanting a quiet London base. Heathrow is within about a half hour's drive, though some streets lie under flight paths. Flooding along the river means insurance and flood-zone checks matter.

England has no ban on foreign purchasers. Stamp Duty Land Tax includes a 2% surcharge for non-UK residents and a 5% higher-rates charge on additional dwellings, which can add substantially to the bill on a £1m+ property. Leasehold flats need a check on lease length, ground rent and service charges. Instruct a solicitor, arrange a survey, and expect exchange and completion weeks apart. See the UK buying guide and the financing page. Confirm tax rates before offering, as budgets change them.

Barnes, Putney, Fulham and Wimbledon are the closest London markets, Esher in Surrey is a leafy alternative, and London covers the wider city. See the United Kingdom page.
