South East London and North Kent

Exciting and ever evolving, with a welcomed family-friendly feel.

There’s perhaps no other region in London as diverse as this one. And South East London is another area that has benefited from lots of investment in the last couple of decades.

Dynamic.
Ever evolving.

From the cultural exuberance of the city’s South Bank to the countryside vibes of Old Bexley, the boroughs in South East London and the surrounding settlements in North Kent offer a dynamic way of living to those who demand variety and excitement from their home town.

 

When it comes to property, there’s truly something for everyone in South East London. The Victorian houses and tree-lined streets in boroughs like Crystal Palace, Lewisham, Camberwell and Bromley appeal to families (and, in fact, anybody craving extra space), while the modern apartments in more urban locations like Vauxhall, Greenwich and Bermondsey make great bases for busy professionals.

Amenities

There are plenty of parks, leisure centres and sports facilities here, so those who like to keep active will be spoilt for choice. When it comes to shopping, South East London is home to plenty of chain stores and high street brands, but you’ll also find a great array of markets, like Horniman’s Farmer’s market, which all help to create that feeling of closeness amongst the communities here.

 

Some parts of South East London are not serviced by London’s tube network, but there are great links to the rest of the city with regularly-running overground trains and buses.
