The 'stunning' British borough where David Tennant owns £2.6million home

London is the busy capital city of the UK, but some spots are more private and residential.

One of these is Chiswick in West London, where the actor owns a home with his family.

The property was said to be worth around £2.6million in 2019 when David was given permission to add to the home.

He was granted planning permission for a 16-metre swimming pool.

This included a changing room as well as a garden room and a gym.

Chiswick is a leafy part of London that has a small village feel, with plenty of bars and restaurants to enjoy.

Those who have visited have shared praise on Tripadvisor and the area has a rating of 4.5 out of five stars.

One visitor wrote: "Pleasant area to visit, not for the tourist who is hunting for sightseeing spots.

"The main road is tree-lined so in October, the leaves are turning and falling. There are quite a few sidewalk cafes.

"It's just a welcoming area. We stopped off and had lunch and a look around some of the shops, that's all, but enjoyed it."
