London Zone 2 homes for sale for less than the £630k average

London Zone 2 homes for sale: 10 properties for less than the £630,000 travel zone price averageDream of living more centrally? If you dig and delve, there are inner London flats, maisonettes and houses to be found for less than you might expect. ES

Inner London’s house prices may be off-puttingly high — the average Zone 2 property currently sells for £630,000, according to Knight Frank estate agency, with flats going for £525,000 and detached homes for just shy of £2 million — but there are still some relative bargains to unearth.

The median Zone 2 sale price has risen by 2.1 per cent over the last year, up from £617,082 in 2021, in part due to the capital opening up again after the Covid-19 pandemic and professionals seeking to avoid a long commute. It is £80,000 higher than the Zone 3 average of £550,000 (also up, by 1.9 per cent).

But don’t despair. Here are 10 properties for sale right now for less than £630,000, from a canalside Mile End new-build to a Maida Vale maisonette a short stroll from not one, not two, but three Tube stations.

From one-bedroom apartments to three-, four- and even five-bedroom family homes, there’s something for every buyer.
