Vauxhall - London

Vauxhall is a commercial and residential district located in southwest London, in the London Borough of Lambeth. Near the Thames, this former industrial area has been undergoing a massive change in the recent years and new well-off contemporary properties with private fitness rooms and chic modern apartments in splendid residential buildings stand alongside gorgeous Victorian houses and typical mansions from the 1970s. The urban district of Vauxhall is famous for its elegant parks, its bustling nightlife as well as its friendly markets.

Market overview

Since 2011, the property prices have risen by 29% in the United Kingdom and particularly in London, where prices reached a high record . According to UBS, the Swiss banking industry heavyweight, the risk of a housing  bubble is high.

Therefore, in order to stop the price boom, the British government proposed solutions in its real-estate white paper of February 2017.

Besides, because of Brexit, the country may have a lower growth compared to the past years, with a loss of purchasing power for UK residents and a potential inflation rise. This phenomenon may have an impact on housing prices which may increase more slowly in London and which may favour foreign buyers.

Low Season
Oct 01 - May 01

Even if the United Kingdom is well-known for its rainy days and its unfavourable climate between October and April, you could benefit from a more affordable trip to London as hotels are less expensive during this period. However, it can be an unforgettable experience to visit London covered in a light layer of snow.

High Season
May 01 - Oct 01

If you prefer visiting London in suitable weather conditions, it is better to favour the period from May to September. You will be able to enjoy discovery and entertainment thanks to longer sunny days as there are many festivals and cultural attractions which take place during this period, such as the Queen Elizabeth II's birthday.

Peak Season
Jul 01 - Aug 31

The summer season of July and August is the most crowded one but it is a better guarantee of good weather conditions. Besides, there are various events which are organized during summer, such as the Championship Wimbledon. Nevertheless, as London attracts many tourists during this period of the year, you will have to foresee a travel budget more substantial and a longer time spent in queuing.

The Kia Oval Cricket Ground

Usually referred as "The Oval", it is the headquarters of the Surrey Country Cricket Club. This famous stadium has undergone a massive redevelopment few years ago: now it has a curved roof, including air terraces and a living screen running around the façade and it can welcome 23,000 visitors. The Oval is often the venue of the last Test match of the English summer. The stadium was originally a football ground before giving away to cricket and the first ever FA Cup Final was played there back in 1872. Therefore, The Oval is one of the two sports ground to have staged both England Football and Cricket internationals.

Vauxhall City Farm

Away from the hustling and bustling city life, visitors can escape to the countryside within London thanks to a little city farm situated on Tyers Street. It is home to sheep, pigs, rabbits, alpacas among others, kids and families will be glad to discover the various animal species. The area also has a herb garden and a riding center which can provide horse riding lessons.
