About Lewisham

Once considered a deprived borough of London and notorious for its high crime rate, the popularity of Lewisham as a place to live is rising steadily – although living costs are still lower than many parts of London.

The wealth of Georgian and Regency properties and green space in beautiful Blackheath makes the area the most desirable place in the borough, although New Cross with its large student population has its fair share of culture, plus much more affordable house prices.

Lewisham in numbers:

  1. The average rent of a one-bedroom apartment in Lewisham is £1,036 pcm, compared to £1,662 pcm in central London
  2. The cost of living for a single person in Lewisham is £736 pcm, compared to £772 pcm in central London
  3. The journey from Lewisham Station to central London takes 19 minutes
