    You downgrading?

    Wouldn't you prefer this? New home, 3 bed flat for sale in One Blackfriars, Southbank SE1 - Zoopla

    We're selling our house at the moment. 3300 sqr ft plus 2 acre garden ..... maybe we should be asking £14m too

      na, I prefer street level.

      Quite fancy the idea of keeping a pied-à-terre London besides having our main residence here in Munich.

        Yes. I walk past it couple of days a week.
        Not a bad area. Some rough bits but it's London.
        Just outside the congestion charge zone and ULEZ.
        Fairly quiet at night. But pollution must be bad as Vauxhall Bridge Road is close by.
        Reasonable choice of pubs and a few restaurants nearby.
        Buses on Vauxhall Bridge Road to Waterloo.
        15 mins walk to St James tube.
        15 mins walk to Victoria Street and loads of eateries.
        Handy for Pimlico or Victoria tube and Victoria coach station.

            Isn't that where Alan Sugar sends the losing team?

              Hope in the years ahead that'll change. Have got used to the fresh air up here in the alps. Returning to Auld Reekie on occasion causes my nose to twitch where it once did not before.

                There must be something going on in the U.K., there’s no money left for critical repairs to Hammersmith Bridge.

                Between this and ULEZ, give it a couple of years and London will be completely pedestrianised.

                  If that's the case, I'd lose on purpose - breakfast there is better than any other possible reward

                    I used to live in Pimlico a while ago. Excellent central location and it is very much a mix of rich and poor (similar to Kensington & Chelsea). Dolphin Square is full of MPs & Civil Servants and right next to it is Churchill Gardens which is one of the largest council estates in London.

                    As one of the other posters mentioned Tachbrook Street is near Vauxhall Bridge Road so it is quite noisy & polluted and there is a street market on it at least once a week so you will have an Eastenders scene outside your front door
