What you need to know about Streatham

Streatham

Once a sleepy remote hamlet located beside the Roman road to Brighton, Streatham is now a bustling district situated within the London Borough of Lambeth. This vibrant neighbourhood became a popular resort town during the 18th century due to the alleged healing powers of the well water in the area, resulting in the building of several retreat houses owned by wealthy families. Streatham is also the location of the first supermarket in the country and today, its continuous shopping street is the longest in the UK, retaining its reputation as a retail district. This area boasts a good number of affordable Victorian and Edwardian terraced houses, stylish cottages, detached and semi-detached family houses, modern apartments and well-maintained council estates, enticing more families and young professionals to migrate from neighbouring Balham and Brixton. Streatham also offers a great selection of local amenities such as restaurants, pubs, bars, cafes and leisure centres along the Streatham High Road. It is just 40 minutes away from the city centre via route A23 and is serviced by Streatham Railway Station.
