The SE1 postcode covers some of London’s most famous and vibrant neighbourhoods, including Bermondsey, London Bridge, Southwark, Borough, and parts of Waterloo. Defined by its cultural landmarks, riverside living, and world-class amenities, SE1 is one of the capital’s most desirable postcodes — offering exceptional lifestyle benefits and long-term investment potential.
Whether you're a homebuyer seeking proximity to the City, a professional drawn to the South Bank lifestyle, or an investor targeting premium rental yields, Fraser Bond provides expert guidance and access to the best opportunities across SE1.
SE1 is directly across the Thames from the City of London and connects key commercial and cultural districts via London Bridge, Blackfriars, and Waterloo. It offers unrivalled access to the West End, the Square Mile, and Canary Wharf — making it ideal for professionals, creatives, and global commuters.
The area is served by London Bridge, Waterloo, Southwark, and Borough stations, with connections to the Jubilee, Northern, Bakerloo, and National Rail networks. Multiple bus routes, riverboats, and cycling infrastructure further enhance its connectivity.
SE1 is home to some of London’s most iconic landmarks, including:
The Shard
Tate Modern
Borough Market
Southbank Centre
Shakespeare’s Globe
The Old Vic and Young Vic Theatres
These cultural assets drive tourism, elevate local prestige, and support consistently strong demand for homes and rentals in the area.
SE1 offers a wide mix of property types:
Warehouse conversions in Bermondsey and Shad Thames
Modern riverside apartments with views of the City and Tower Bridge
Luxury developments such as One Blackfriars and The Shard Residences
Period townhouses and flats in Borough and Southwark
This variety caters to professionals, high-net-worth buyers, international investors, and creative-sector tenants.
The combination of limited housing supply, sustained tenant demand, and continued regeneration has driven strong capital growth and rental yields in SE1. Luxury apartments near the river and transport hubs frequently command top-end rents and long-term value appreciation.

One-bedroom flats: £650,000 – £900,000
Two-bedroom apartments: £850,000 – £1.5 million
