Pimlico Lettings Agents: Lettings in London SW1

The district of Pimlico runs south of Victoria down by the River Thames and is bordered to the west by Chelsea and to the east by Westminster.

A popular residential choice with a prevalence of white stucco-fronted houses, Pimlico is much quieter than its busy neighbour Victoria.

Lettings in Pimlico SW1

Pimlico offers a stylish, central location for those who don’t wish to pay Belgravia prices. Flats and apartments dominate with family homes. Tall white stucco buildings offer grand accommodation. Ex-council blocks line the river next to Dolphin Square, which are rapidly changing to plush new portered developments.

A few streets are busy through-routes, yet a vigorously enforced traffic scheme ensures that the majority enjoy a quiet life.

Due to its proximity to Buckingham Palace, Victoria has some formidable architecture and many of the streets are lined with imposing and regal white stucco-fronted houses. Eaton Square and the mews streets running behind it are amongst the most sought-after addresses in London.

Victoria Station, in the centre of the district, is a massive mainline rail and bus terminus serving travel throughout the South East of England encouraging some to settle to the more residential neighbourhood to Pimilco

If you walk the length of Victoria Street alone you will pass along the way the neo-Byzantine masterwork that is Westminster Cathedral, the HQ of the D.T.I and the glass structure known as the Channel Four Building.

History of Pimlico

Until the late 17th or early 18th century, Pimlico was known as Ebury or “The Five Fields”. According to tradition, it received its name from Ben Pimlico, famous for his nut-brown ale. The name may also derive from a Spanish word for drink.

Millbank Prison (1816-1880) was the spot from which prisoners were transported to Australia.

By the 19th century, and as a result of an increase in demand for property in the previously unfashionable West end of London following the Great Plague and the Great Fire of London, Pimlico had become ripe for development. Thomas Cubitt was contracted to develop Pimlico in 1825.

As early as the latter half of the century, however, Pimlico saw the construction of several ‘Peabody Estates’ charitable housing projects designed to provide cheap, quality homes for the poor. In addition, in the post war period, several large public housing estates were built in the area on land cleared by bombing. Many of the fine Victorian houses were converted into bed and breakfasts and hotels.

In 1950, embarrassed by the slums and brothels with which Pimlico had become associated in the press and criminal courts, the Second Duke of Westminster sold the part of the Grosvenor estate on which it is built.

Now, as in Central London in general, Pimlico property prices are high, and the area is again fashionable. A large number of houses have once again been repurposed, being divided into one or two bedroom apartments intended for young professionals.
