What's it like to live in Streatham?

Streatham has been tipped as "up-and-coming" for years, and in 2026 it's finally delivering. The High Road — one of London's longest — has attracted new restaurants, a branch of the Hive climbing centre, and independent shops. Streatham Common provides green space, and the lido is a summer highlight. Three rail stations provide decent access to Victoria and London Bridge. The main issue is transport — no tube — which keeps rents lower than Brixton or Tooting next door. For renters who want a south London Victorian terrace with a garden, Streatham is excellent value.
