The housing here

What Camden's stock means for granite

In Camden, 26.2% of homes sit in converted or shared houses, the highest of the 33 London boroughs. 48.6% of the housing was already standing before 1919, among the highest in London.

Original proportions and a modern galley rarely line up. On granite the mismatch is absorbed by the template and the slab selection together. You see the slab before it is cut.

Standing before 1919 / 48.6%

Floors in houses this age move, so the units are levelled properly before templating. Granite will not forgive a base that settles afterwards. Which is a slab decision, and it is made with you.

The middle half of our granite range runs from £148 to £250 per square metre, across 45 colours. In Camden, 27.3% of homes sit in council tax band F or above, among the highest in London. In a large room the question is how many slabs the cut list needs, because an island that spills onto a second slab moves the price more than any extra metre of run.

Frognal has the highest owner-occupation of the 23 Camden neighbourhoods we list, at 50%, ahead of Highgate (44%) and Dartmouth Park (44%); Euston has the lowest, at 12%. Granite is sealed on installation and topped up over time, a schedule that is easiest to keep where people own the kitchen they cook in.

The share of housing standing before 1919 is not even across Camden: of the 23 neighbourhoods we list, it is highest in South Hampstead at 81%, then Fortune Green (75%) and Tufnell Park (74%), and lowest in Euston at 11%. Walls of that age are rarely straight, so a granite top is scribed to the template rather than to a straight line.

Questions

Granite in Camden

01

Our Camden house is Victorian. Can granite follow walls that are not straight?

Yes. In Camden, 48.6% of the housing was already standing before 1919, among the highest in London. The template records the real wall line once the units are fixed and level, the stone is cut to it, and the back edge is scribed on the day so it follows the plaster rather than a straight line.

02

Is granite a good choice beside a busy hob in Camden?

On heat, yes: hot pans are fine on granite, which is why it still earns its place next to a hob that gets hammered. In Camden, 27.3% of homes sit in council tax band F or above, among the highest in London. The trade-off is upkeep, because granite is sealed on installation and topped up over time.

03

What does granite cost for a larger kitchen in Camden?

It depends on the slab count more than the room. In Camden, 10.5% of homes have four bedrooms or more, close to the middle of the London range. The template shows whether the run and any island come out of one slab or two.
