This one's a surprise. I can remember being put off the Baron's Court area at one time because of the speed at which prices were rising. If you're not confident and able to move quickly a rapidly rising investors' market can translate into a bad deal, the wrong property or occasionally even an inflated value. But now here's the Independent, revealing there are still bargains to be had there. Bargains by west London standards, anyway. Don't be too beguiled by the prospects of living near the Queen's Club, though. Remember to turn right, once in a while, when you come out of the station and check out the roads leading to Fulham Palace Road. Not too far, though. At kicking out time, that sixth form college is noisy.
