For decades London’s South Bank has been synonymous with the arts and a vibrant cultural offering. It is an area where you can stroll along the river front and visit the London Eye, or catch a performance at the Southbank Centre, Royal Festival Hall or the National Theatre.
For those looking for property for sale or to rent in the South Bank area, exciting new developments right on the river and just steps from Waterloo Station are set to bring more residents than ever to this beating heart of the city. There will be glamorous developments with river views and luxurious amenities to complement the more traditional historic streets along this two-mile stretch of river between the boroughs of Lambeth and Southwark.
The transport links are second to none. As well as Waterloo National Rail and Underground Station, which is on the Bakerloo, Northern, Jubilee and Waterloo and City lines, Embankment Underground and Charing Cross National Rail and Underground serve the Northern, Bakerloo and District and Circle lines between them. Some of London’s most famous sights, from the Houses of Parliament to The Strand and Covent Garden are within easy walking distance, too.
The area’s cultural vibe is further enhanced by a selection of great hotels and friendly bars. Some of London’s best restaurants are also to be found near the South Bank.
Further around the curve in the river, more exciting developments have transformed Albert Embankment too. This once half-forgotten stretch of the river is now home to luxury apartments with sweeping river views, upscale eateries and bars and its own fantastic transport connections into the city from Vauxhall National Rail and Underground station.
