About

Northfields sits in the London Borough of Ealing and is centred on Northfields station on the Piccadilly line. The main shopping area runs along Northfield Avenue, where a curved parade of shops meets the station entrance and small cafés and specialist stores occupy ground-floor units with flats above. Short walks lead to small public green spaces and allotment plots that break the residential blocks, and frequent buses connect the neighbourhood with wider Ealing and central routes.

Housing is largely suburban in scale, with early 20th-century terraces and semi-detached houses set behind modest front gardens, interspersed with later infill and low-rise flats. Local provision includes primary schools, community centres and a handful of long-established family-run businesses that have traded from the same shopfronts for decades. The area is often chosen by people who want direct Piccadilly line access while keeping a quieter street pattern and close neighbourhood facilities.
