Our Local Area

The Southbank along the river in particular lies in the heart of the SE1 London postcode, and the regeneration of the Southbank has been the focus of the major Riverside London Regeneration projects and catapulted this area into the London property premier league. The London Eye, The Shard The Tate Modern, Shakespeare's Globe are just a few of the spectacular landmarks in The Southbank, and they all sit in some of the most beautiful architectural spots London has to offer.

The views that are available from the Southbank outrank views from anywhere else in London, as the area sits opposite The Houses of Parliament and St Pauls Cathedral. With the famous Borough Market based in SE1, the Southbank offers more than just views, as it is filled with history and a culture that is over 1,000 years old. With produce bought in from around Europe, the diversity that is found in Borough Market is unrivalled, as is the quality.

Coldwell Banker Southbank is an integral part of this community recognising London as one of the most important property markets anywhere in the world and the centre of attention for many buyers, sellers and investors.

The average price of property in December 2015 in SE1 stands at some 30% above the London average. Average rents in SE1 are about 8% above the London average. These are statistics which support the fact that Southbank is in-demand. Elephant and Castle is currently undergoing the biggest regeneration in Europe, which should catapult the area into a hotspot for buyers and investors.

The Southbank is exceptionally well served by rail and road. Major public transport terminals include Waterloo and London Bridge stations with numerous underground stations also coming to Southbank. The night tube, having been introduced earlier this year also includes the Jubilee line, which comes through the heart of Southbank.
