Property for sale in Elephant and Castle

Elephant & Castle is a major road junction in the Borough of Southwark and also incorporates areas of Walworth and Newington.

Property in Elephant & Castle tends to take the form of high rise residential blocks and social housing is now being demolished to make way for some new and exciting developments. The Metro Central Heights residential block and huge 43 storey Strata residential block form imposing figures in the area, and provide plenty of living space for the increasing population of the area. Its proximity to major areas of employment such as Westminster, the West End and the City have contributed to the astounding growth.

Other local buildings include the Department Of Health’s Skipton House, the London South Bank University Campus and the London College Of Communication, which have all helped to increase the demand for property in Elephant & Castle. The increasing student population of the area has meant that property investment in Elephant & Castle has become an industry of its own.

As you would expect, the area is very well connected. The junction itself forms part of the London Inner Ring Road which links to important routes such as the A2 and A3. It has two linked underground stations on the Northern and Bakerloo lines and a National Rail station.
