Papaya seems to be having its moment — Lando and Oscar are riding high in the standings, McLaren Racing topping the Constructors’ Championship, and somewhere across the pond, a papaya-toned septuagenarian is dominating headlines with sweeping tariffs… followed by U-turns sharp enough to make the McLaren boys wince.
The result? 📉 Markets have wobbled. Portfolios have dipped. Some have bounced back, others are still holding their breath. Financial advisers have even started quoting The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy: “Don’t panic.”
But here in Westminster — specifically in SW1P and SW1V — it’s been a far calmer affair.
✔️ Property prices are stable
✔️ Buyer activity remains strong
✔️ And with talk of further interest rate cuts and some lenders now offering 99% LTV mortgages, the opportunity for tenants to step onto the ladder is better than it’s been in years.
Whether you're after classic Westminster elegance, something sleek and modern, or a leafy spot a little further out — here are a few highlights currently on the market:
🏛️ Great Smith Street, Westminster SW1P – A period apartment moments from the Abbey and the heart of Westminster.
🌿 Abbey Orchard Street, Westminster SW1P – Sleek, modern living in a prime SW1 position.
🌉 Cambridge Road, Battersea SW11 – Not quite Westminster, but offers great space and a Battersea Park lifestyle.
🌳 Westleigh Avenue, Putney SW15 – A charming two-bed garden flat on a peaceful, tree-lined street with excellent links into town.
So if you’re thinking about stepping off the market’s rollercoaster and into a home where the roof does more than protect your assets — it keeps the rain off too — give us a shout. We’d love to show you what’s possible.
